| Reverse description | A seated female figure, representing France or Abundance, holding olive branches in her right hand and steadying a large ornate clock or hourglass structure with her left, while a winged figure of Time — depicted with goat legs, wings, and a scythe — stands to the right indicating the hour on the dial. The allegorical scene is set against trophies and ground, with the date 1600 in the exergue. The Latin legend encircles the design within a toothed rim. |
