Reverse description Two kneeling allegorical figures in high relief dominate the field: to the left, a male figure holding an open book and raising a flaming torch; to the right, a draped female figure holding the tragic and comic masks of theatre. Between them, a large bearded mask is prominently displayed. The engraver's signature P. VINCZE appears at the base. The legend arcs around the upper rim and the dates are inscribed in large numerals across the lower field.
