| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed narrative scene from the Brothers Grimm fairy tale Hansel and Gretel, engraved in an illustrative, low-relief style. To the right stand the two children — Hansel and Gretel — before the witch's gingerbread house, whose roof is depicted with overlapping rounded tiles suggesting confectionery. The menacing, grotesque face of the witch looms in the lower left field, surrounded by foliage and scattered pebbles. The title legend 'HANSEL ET GRETEL' is inscribed in stylised uppercase letters along the upper arc of the coin. |
