Reverse description The reverse depicts a Masonic altar topped with a crown and bearing the Square and Compasses with the letter G, set against a rocky landscape. Above, radiating sunbeams emanate from a cloud in which two hands are clasped within an oval cartouche, symbolising the Masonic fraternal bond. A circular Latin legend borders the upper field, with a two-line inscription in the lower exergue including the date in Roman numerals, and the engraver's initials P.H.L. at the bottom.
