| Reverse description | Central composition depicting a flaming sacrificial altar on a stepped plinth, from which smoke rises toward a radiant all-seeing eye of Providence in the upper left. Emerging from clouds at left, a hand holds a sword aloft, while from clouds at right another hand holds a balance scale, together symbolizing prudence, piety, and justice. The engravers' initials I.G. and W. appear at the base of the altar. The circumferential Latin legend PRUDENTER PIE IUSTE is distributed around the field, with the mintmaster's initials IGW completing the inscription. |
