Reverse description The reverse presents a bold, stylized scene depicting the prophet Daniel standing upright at center, robed in a long draped garment with arms raised in prayer or supplication. Two powerful lions, rendered in a Near Eastern artistic style with heavily maned heads, flank Daniel on either side, facing outward in submission. Above, rays of divine light emanate from a latticed window or grate at the top of the den, rendered in a geometric relief style that contrasts with the satin-finished background. The composition occupies the full field of the coin, with no legends on the reverse, allowing the dramatic biblical narrative imagery to dominate.
