| Reverse description | Set against a deeply blackened field strewn with scattered geometric star and crystal motifs evoking a nocturnal cosmos, a single large serpent is depicted in high relief, its body elegantly coiled in a sweeping S-curve that fills the circular field. The snake's finely engraved scales and naturalistic musculature are rendered with great artistic precision, while swirling concentric vortex lines in the field suggest dynamic cosmic motion. The serpent's head appears at the right, with a forked tongue extended, conveying alert vitality. An engraver's monogram appears in the lower right portion of the field. The overall composition presents a sophisticated fusion of natural history and cosmic symbolism in the Proof finish. |
