| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a full-length portrait of Johannes Amos Comenius, the renowned 17th-century Czech educator and philosopher, shown seated at a table and writing with a quill, his long beard and robes rendered in fine high-relief. To his right on the table stands a terrestrial globe on a stand, symbolising his universal educational ambitions. The inscription DIDACTICA OPERA OMNIA is prominently engraved across the foreground in three lines on a stone-like tablet. The curved legend JOHANNES AMOS COMENIUS • PRAECEPTOR GENTIUM arches around the upper rim, identifying the subject and his celebrated epithet 'Teacher of Nations'. |
