Reverse description The reverse depicts an elaborate, highly stylised representation of a Gothic rose window, rendered in deeply sculpted concentric relief that fills the entire coin surface. Radiating tracery panels extend from a central medallion, which features a finely engraved circular ornament at its core. Between the radiating spokes, intricate Gothic architectural motifs, including lancet arches, foliate scrollwork, and figural elements, are worked in rich detail. Eight multicoloured inlaid gemstones — comprising red, blue, green, and amber crystals — are set symmetrically at the terminals of alternating tracery arms, providing vivid chromatic contrast against the burnished gold ground. The overall composition is unified and symmetrical, celebrating the artistry of medieval stained glass and Gothic cathedral architecture.
