Reverse description The reverse presents a continuous circular frieze of scenes depicting the seasonal labours and activities of Lithuanian peasants, drawn from motifs of Kristijonas Donelaitis's epic poem Metai (The Seasons). A stylised Sun occupies a prominent position within the composition, symbolising the natural cycle of the Earth and the eternal rhythm of life. The figures and pastoral vignettes are arranged in a flowing, circular narrative around the field. The inscription KRISTIJONAS DONELAITIS 300 appears in the legend, commemorating the 300th anniversary of the poet's birth.
