| Reverse description | Dynamic high-relief depiction of Hermes, the Greek messenger god, shown in vigorous flight across a richly detailed field. The deity is portrayed wearing his iconic winged petasos helmet and talaria (winged sandals), a flowing drape around his lower body, and carrying the caduceus — the serpent-entwined herald's staff — prominently in his right hand. Two birds accompany him in flight, and a detailed cityscape evoking ancient Greece is rendered in the lower-left background amid swirling clouds and ornamental foliage. The artist's initials 'JM' appear discreetly in the lower-right field, and a scroll banner at the base of the design bears the name 'HERMES' in raised Latin letters. |
