| Reverse description | An elaborate allegorical scene depicting a semi-draped Germania, leaning against a heraldic shield, presenting the imperial crown and orb across a table to Leopold II, who is enthroned at left; a fully armoured warrior figure (Mars) stands at right in support. The all-seeing eye of God radiates from within a triangle amid clouds above the scene. The engraver's name REICH appears in the lower left field. The legend DIGNISSIMO appears on a ribbon above, with the date in a double-line exergue below. |
