Reverse description An elaborate court scene in high relief depicting Queen Maria Luisa seated beneath a canopy on the right, bestowing the Order's medal upon a kneeling noblewoman, attended by a group of courtiers and ladies; above, the winged allegory of Fame soars amid billowing clouds, while a cherub kneels beside a smoking urn at lower left. A circular legend surrounds the scene and a multi-line inscription in the lower exergue records the foundation of the Royal Spanish Order of Noble Ladies of Queen Maria Luisa.
