| Obverse description | The obverse is domed while the reverse is concaved. This structure enables multiple pieces to stack neatly into place. Given the complexity of the design, the precision necessary to enable each piece to click into place is truly astounding. The design itself is a genuine work of art. In it we see the image of a pawn across a silver shield-like surface. The design also includes the image of an actual shield beneath the pawn with a cross on its center. Meanwhile, the backdrop consists of a beautiful pattern that resembles a rose window. The shield’s design is quite ornate and recalls imagery found in old Cathedrals and other Medieval Gothic architecture. |
