Obverse description Within a beaded border, a winged Victory standing in high relief holds a flag or standard, with a radiant star above her head, as she gestures with her outstretched arm toward a group of doves taking flight. At her feet, a kneeling male figure reaches forward alongside a basket, with a palm frond in the lower field. The legend AD PATRIAM TVENDAM appears in the upper right field, with engraver and publisher signatures along the inner border.
