| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the chivalric ceremony of the accolade, in which a crowned king confers knighthood upon a squire kneeling before him in a posture of submission and devotion. The king is shown placing or lowering a sword upon the shoulder of the recipient, the defining gesture of the dubbing ritual as practiced in medieval European courts. The figures are rendered in a detailed, illustrative style evoking illuminated manuscript traditions, with period-accurate costume and court setting suggested by the composition. The scene commemorates the rites of chivalry central to the broader Knights Tales commemorative series issued by the Austrian Mint. |
