Reverse description The reverse features a highly detailed depiction of a plague doctor's beaked mask rendered in high relief against a deeply recessed field, with the characteristic long beak historically associated with 14th-century plague physicians. Within the lens of the mask, a skeletal or spectral figure symbolising pestilence and death is reflected, creating a striking trompe-l'oeil effect. The design references the Black Death pandemic of 1346, with the date inscribed prominently below the central motif. The legend BLACK DEATH arcs across the upper field in bold relief lettering.
