| Reverse description | A finely detailed bust of Hugo Grotius (Hugo de Groot), the celebrated Dutch jurist and father of international law, is presented in right-facing profile within a rectangular frame that occupies the central and right portion of the field. Grotius is depicted with flowing hair and a short beard, wearing a period ruff collar characteristic of early 17th-century Dutch fashion. The legend GROTIUS is inscribed vertically along the left edge of the inner frame, while his birth and death years 1583-1645 appear horizontally along the lower edge of the frame. The overall design has a precise, engraved quality befitting a proof-struck commemorative issue. |
