Reverse description The reverse presents a bold modernist composition in high relief depicting a stylized Eucharistic scene: a large circular form suggestive of a host or sun is surmounted by a patriarchal (double-barred) cross, set against sweeping curved and geometric volumes evoking a chalice and liturgical elements. The engraver's signature and date appear at lower right in the field.
