| Reverse description | A five-line Latin inscription in bold Roman capitals occupies the central field, reading MELIVS / EST·DARE / QVAM / ACCIPERE / 1689, enclosed within a finely rendered palm wreath tied at the base with a ribbon and crossed at the apex. The wreath fronds are naturalistically detailed, and the date 1689 appears beneath the motto at the foot of the inscription. The milled border frames the entire design. |
