| Reverse description | A finely engraved Bird of Paradise (Paradisaea raggiana) is depicted perched on a branch in the centre of the field, its elaborate elongated plumage radiating dramatically across the entire reverse in highly detailed relief. The bird faces left with its body rendered in naturalistic detail, surrounded by sweeping decorative tail feathers that fill the field to the beaded inner border. The field is otherwise unlettered, allowing the intricate engraving of the plumage to dominate the design in an ornate and artistically accomplished composition. |
