| Reverse description | A dynamic high-relief scene depicts the hero Hercules engaged in combat with the multi-headed Lernaean Hydra. Hercules, muscular and bearded, raises a club overhead with his right hand while grasping one of the serpent's necks with his left, surrounded by coiling snake bodies rising from a grassy marsh. A Greek meander (key) border ornament frames the left and right inner margins of the design. The legend HERCULES is inscribed in bold Greek-styled lettering along the upper arc, and the fineness notation 1oz 999 Fine Silver appears vertically along the lower right field. |
