| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold and decorative central composition depicting the sun and the moon as anthropomorphic faces in high relief. The sun, rendered in selective rose gold plating, dominates the centre with a radiant human face surrounded by long, stylised rays extending toward the rose gold plated reeded border. Partially overlapping the sun to the left is a silver crescent moon, also bearing a human face in profile, accompanied by five-pointed stars scattered across the adjacent field. The background field is finely engraved with concentric hatched lines and a border of alternating lunar phase discs, creating a rich textural contrast between the gilded and silver elements. |
