| Obverse description | A betrothed couple seated on a bench embraces and kisses in a garden setting, with a table bearing a dish of fruit and a goblet in the left field. The scene is framed by an arched bower of vine branches laden with leaves and grape clusters, flanked on each side by a column surmounted by a statue of a naked armed man standing on a globe bearing the date numerals 16 and 68. The circular legend runs along the upper rim. |

| Reverse description | Two palm trees, their trunks bound together by a padlocked chain at centre, frame a landscape with a river and wooded far bank in the middle ground, while a pair of birds facing and billing one another are depicted in the lower foreground amid foliage and water. Above the tree canopies, a hand issuing from a cloud holds the key to the padlock and divides the circular legend, which runs along the upper rim. |
