| Reverse description | A detailed architectural depiction of the Lighthouse of Alexandria (the Pharos) occupies the left and central portions of the field, rendered in a three-tiered form rising from a massive stone base, with a lantern chamber surmounted by a statue at the apex. Rays of light emanate diagonally from the summit across the field, dividing the design into a polished, mirror-like black upper-right quadrant bearing the incuse legend THE LIGHTHOUSE OF ALEXANDRIA in bold relief lettering. The lower field suggests the surrounding harbour walls and landscape. The engraver's initials PB appear at lower right. |
