| Reverse description | The reverse bears a right-facing portrait bust of Emilija Pliaterytė, the celebrated heroine of the 1831 Polish-Lithuanian uprising against Russian rule. The effigy is rendered in fine relief with period-appropriate attire and conveys a strong heroic character. Her name EMILIJA PLIATERYTĖ is inscribed in a legend arcing around the upper portion of the field, while the birth and death years 1806 and 1831 flank the portrait in the lower field. The overall composition is austere and dignified, consistent with commemorative medallic portraiture. |
