| Reverse description | A finely modelled left-facing bust portrait of the German poet and polymath Johann Wolfgang von Goethe occupies the central field, depicted in mature age with naturalistically rendered wavy hair and an open collar. The legend 'JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETHE' curves along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. The birth and death years '1749 - 1832' are inscribed in the lower field. The engraver's monogram 'F4' (for Wilfried Fitzenreiter) appears discreetly to the right of the truncation. |
