| Reverse description | Four-line inscription arranged centrally within a continuous laurel wreath encircling the entire field. The text names the denomination and its monetary standard in plain, unadorned capital letters. The wreath is finely detailed with individual leaves rendered in relief, providing a decorative border that frames the denomination inscription. The overall composition is simple and legible, typical of emergency siege coinage where functionality superseded artistic elaboration. |
