| Obverse description | A female allegorical figure, facing left in three-quarter view, stands in high relief at the center of the field, draped in classical robes. She is surrounded by large stylized thorny bramble branches that enclose and partially obstruct her, symbolizing art constrained by hardship. The designer's signature 'C.J. HOES' appears in the lower right field. |
