| Reverse description | Two allegorical female figures in neoclassical dress dominate the field: a seated figure on the left extends her hand toward a standing figure on the right, who crowns her and holds a cornucopia. Behind them rise a column bearing a bust of Minerva, an ornate vase, a palm tree, and a flaming torch, along with various emblems of industry and crafts including a cogwheel, compass, ruler, and anvil. The Württemberg coat of arms appears in the exergue, flanked by oak and laurel branches. The legend curves around the upper periphery within a beaded border, with the date 1881 along the right side. |
