| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of a Baroque equestrian portrait of Maria Theresa, Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary and Bohemia, depicted mounted on a rearing brown horse and attired in a blue dress with white accoutrements. The empress is shown in three-quarter view amid an elaborate allegorical composition featuring winged putti crowning her from above, and flanking allegorical figures representing virtues or nations. The richly detailed scene is rendered in vivid color print applied to the silver surface, framed by the coin's milled rectangular border, evoking the grand commemorative portrait tradition of the Habsburg court. |
