| Reverse description | High-relief depiction of the Sphinx rendered as a winged, helmeted female figure with the body of a lioness, shown in a reclining pose facing left. The creature holds a selectively gilt human skull in her right forepaw, rendered with striking contrast against the antique-finished silver field. Large, intricately detailed feathered wings rise dramatically behind her, and she wears ornate jewelry including a necklace and earrings. A decorative Greek meander pattern forms the background, while the border features a continuous ring of stylized eyes. The inscription 'SPHINX' is engraved vertically along the left field. |
