Reverse description The reverse bears an entirely epigraphic design, with the commemorative Latin funerary inscription arranged in fourteen lines across the field, recording the birth, death, and interment dates of Duke Bogislaw XIV as well as the names of the sponsoring rulers. The text is rendered in elegant Roman capital letters of uniform size. The inscription is surrounded by the same continuous laurel wreath border as the obverse, lending the piece a formal and ceremonial character befitting a state burial commemoration. No figurative imagery appears; the entire reverse field is devoted to the memorial text.
