| Obverse description | An allegorical female figure in high relief strides dynamically across the field, raising a caduceus aloft in her right hand and draped in flowing robes. Behind her, the Antwerp harbor with ships and cranes is depicted in low relief to the left, while monumental exhibition buildings appear to the right. The engraver's signature A. MACHAUX is visible in the lower right field, and a bearded mask or figure emerges at her feet. |
