| Reverse description | The reverse repeats the same allegorical border design as the obverse, printed in the same orange-brown tone, with standing classical figures at the sides and a putti frieze along the lower margin. The central field is largely plain, with the two circular guilloche medallions retained in their symmetrical positions within the ornamental frame. |
