| Reverse description | A facing bust of Johann Sebastian Bach, rendered in high relief with flowing curled wig and period dress, dominates the central field. To the left of the portrait, organ pipes are depicted in fine engraved detail, evoking Bach's celebrated mastery of the instrument. To the right stands a schematic rendering of a church or civic building with a distinctive tower, likely referencing Leipzig's Thomaskirche. The abbreviated name 'JOH. SEB. BACH' is inscribed in the upper legend, and the composer's birth and death years '1685 - 1750' appear in the lower exergue. |
