| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed Egyptian calendar wheel rendered in antique finish with desert sand color resin inlay. Twelve radiating segments, each depicting a standing ancient Egyptian deity or royal figure accompanied by hieroglyphic inscriptions, are arranged symmetrically around a raised central medallion. The central medallion features the Eye of Horus (Wadjet) enclosed within a triangle, flanked by decorative rosettes and connected by three spokes to the inner ring.
