| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed, three-dimensional rendering of vintage letterpress printing type blocks arranged to spell out the motto TIME IS MONEY across the field. Individual movable-type characters of varying sizes, fonts, and finishes are depicted in high relief, filling the entire circular surface with selective color application in warm golden and bronze tones on key letters, contrasting with the antique silver finish of the surrounding blocks.

The overall design is a tour de force of modern minting artistry, evoking the historical connection between typography, commerce, and time. |
