Reverse description The reverse features a finely modelled three-quarter bust portrait of Gedeon Richter, the Hungarian pharmacist and pharmaceutical industrialist, facing slightly left, depicted in suit and tie in a naturalistic, sculptural style. To the right of the portrait, the subject's birth and death years 1872–1944 are inscribed above the name RICHTER GEDEON in prominent raised lettering.
