| Reverse description | A polychrome colored scene inspired by the Brothers Grimm fairy tale 'The Frog Prince' fills the field. To the left, a princess wearing a pink gown and a golden crown leans forward as if to bestow a kiss upon a crowned green frog perched atop a silver orb engraved with a royal crown motif. The princess's flowing auburn hair and dress are rendered in vivid enamel colors against a mirror-finish silver background adorned with incuse arabesque scrollwork. The title inscription FROG PRINCE arcs gracefully along the upper portion of the field in italic Latin script, with the date 2014 incuse at the bottom. |
