Reverse description The reverse depicts a classical allegorical figure of Aquarius, the water-bearer, rendered in high sculptural relief. A semi-draped male youth, wearing a diadem and sandals, kneels dynamically while pouring water from a large ewer held aloft in his right hand; a second vessel rests at his lower left. Star-shaped ornaments, representing the principal stars of the Aquarius constellation, are scattered across the figure's garments and limbs. Flowing wavy lines in the field to the left evoke cascading water, while the Aquarius zodiac glyph — two parallel wavy lines — appears to the right of the figure. The field is otherwise unlettered, with the entire composition set against a polished mirror background.
