| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a finely detailed high-relief representation of the three Great Pyramids of Giza, dominating the entire field against a deeply mirrored proof background. The two larger pyramids — those of Khufu and Khafre — rise prominently in the centre and right, their finely engraved coursed stonework rendered with exceptional detail, while the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure appears to the left. The pyramids are depicted without inscription or legend, allowing the monumental ancient structures to serve as the sole decorative motif. The field behind the pyramids exhibits iridescent toning characteristic of proof striking. The design is contained within a uniform beaded border. |
