| Reverse description | The reverse displays a trapezoidal shield or keystone-shaped emblem in low relief at the center of the field, flanked by Masonic working tools including what appear to be a trowel and a gavel or hammer, consistent with Royal Arch Masonic symbolism. The surface shows heavy wear and patination, but the overall composition of symbols remains discernible. |
