Reverse description Two neoclassical allegorical female figures in high relief occupy the field: a standing figure at left, representing Truth, raises a torch or wand aloft; a seated figure at right, representing Fiction or Poetry, holds a harp. Both stand on a raised plinth with a laurel wreath ornament below in the lower field. The engraver's signature W. WYON S. appears at lower right. The curved legend reads around the border, framed by a beaded rim.
