| Reverse description | A richly detailed, fantastical bust of Lilith dominates the field, depicted as a pale-skinned female figure with intricate floral and tribal tattoo motifs adorning her face, neck, and shoulders. She wears an elaborate ornate headdress incorporating a stylized bird rendered in vivid color, with cascading gold chains and gemstone pendants, and a white owl perches upon her right shoulder. A serpent coils around her body, and her attire features intricately patterned garments with floral designs, all executed with exceptional polychrome coloring against a silver-toned minted background. A water lily and turtle motif are visible in the background field, contributing to the mythological atmosphere of the composition. The artist's signature appears in the lower left field. |
