| Obverse description | A partially draped classical female figure stands in three-quarter view in the field, flanked by two open gates inscribed INDUSTRY and SCIENCE; she extends her left hand toward a palm branch and holds a caduceus in her right, while a garland-wearing lamb stands at her left side and an ancient crested helmet rests at her right foot. The background reveals industrial machinery, architectural structures, and tropical foliage visible through the opened gates. The maker's signature PINCHES appears in the lower exergue. |
