Reverse description The reverse presents a richly detailed composition centered on a stylized cartographic depiction of the territory of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, upon which key historical events and milestones of the Lithuanian state are rendered symbolically. The entire design is encircled by the inscription LIETUVOS DIDŽIOJI KUNIGAIKŠTYSTĖ along the periphery. A ducal coronet of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania crowns the composition at the top, lending the design heraldic authority. The engraving reflects a high-relief artistic style befitting the commemorative nature of the issue.
