| Reverse description | An allegorical figure of Peace stands facing forward at the centre of the field, crowned and draped in classical robes, holding a dove aloft in her raised right hand, with radiant sunbeams emanating behind her head. Two putti recline at her feet amid fruiting foliage, while groups of classically robed figures flank her on either side in lower relief, bearing vessels and musical instruments symbolising the arts and abundance of peacetime. The legend PAX ET CONCORDIA arcs along the upper border. |
