| Reverse description | The reverse employs the same split-field technique, dividing the design vertically between a frosted satin ground on the left and a mirror-polished dark ground on the right. The left half features a large arrangement of alchemical and Enochian symbols associated with John Dee, including the Monas Hieroglyphica and elemental glyphs rendered in bold relief. The right half presents a finely detailed portrait bust of John Dee facing left, rendered with his characteristic long beard and cap, in a style evoking Renaissance portraiture. The legend 'JOHN DEE' is inscribed vertically along the left margin, while the dates '1527 - 1608/9' appear along the right periphery in a diagonal orientation. |
