| Reverse description | Right-facing portrait bust of Hans Christian Andersen dominates the right portion of the field, rendered in high relief with fine detail to his period clothing and curled hair. To his left, a low-relief depiction of a traditional Danish cottage — believed to represent his birthplace in Odense — is set against a background with a tree. The arc legend 'STORYTELLER FROM ODENSE' appears along the upper periphery, and the name 'HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN' is inscribed along the lower arc. The birth and death years '1805 · 1875' are placed centrally in the lower middle field. |
