| Reverse description | Mercury, winged and holding his caduceus, stands to the right and pinches the ear of a robed Dutch statesman who is shown sleeping with his head resting on a desk or table. The scene serves as an allegorical warning against complacency. The Latin legend is arranged around the beaded border. |
