Reverse description A standing allegorical female figure of Scientia, draped and wreathed, raises a flaming torch in her right hand while treading upon a dragon of darkness at her feet. She is flanked by two putti, each supporting a crowned heraldic shield — the arms of Württemberg to the left and Tübingen to the right — amid oak and vine foliage. The engraver's signature K. SCHWENZER appears on the base. The date and occasion legend is divided between the upper arc and the lower exergue within a beaded border.
