| Obverse description | Within the field, a richly detailed allegorical scene depicts a Romanian peasant woman, identified as Modura, presenting a jug of water to King Carol II, who stands in his aviator's flight vestments. Behind the king, an airplane rests in an open field, referencing a celebrated royal aviation episode. The composition is executed in high relief with fine engraving characteristic of the medallic tradition, with the figures arranged in a naturalistic, narrative style. |
