| Reverse description | The reverse bears a right-facing portrait bust of the Austrian composer Joseph Haydn in high relief, depicted in period dress with a powdered wig tied at the nape, his coat collar and cravat finely detailed. Musical staves with notation are engraved in the left field behind the bust, flanked by a small figure of a musician, evoking Haydn's celebrated legacy. To the right of the bust, further musical stave motifs are rendered in the background field. Below the portrait, the legend JOSEPH HAYDN is inscribed in two lines, with the composer's birth and death years 1732 and 1809 displayed on successive lines beneath. |
