| Reverse description | High-relief antiqued composition depicting the Greek demigod Perseus, clad in armour and a crested helmet, grappling with the serpent-haired Gorgon Medusa whose coiling serpentine lower body wraps around the hero's form. Perseus holds a polished mirror-finish shield to his right, its reflective surface rendered as a contrasting burnished inset, enabling him to avoid Medusa's petrifying gaze — a hallmark element of the myth. Additional armoured warriors are visible in the background, adding narrative depth to the scene. Rocky ground elements occupy the lower field. The entire reverse image is bordered by the same continuous Greek meander pattern as the obverse, while the legends PERSEUS and DEMIGODS appear within the border frieze around the design. |
