| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, deeply struck scene from the Germanic legend of Siegfried the Dragonslayer. A heroic male figure, Siegfried, is depicted crouching in the foreground amid a rocky landscape, grasping a staff or sword, his muscular form rendered in dynamic relief. Dominating the upper field is a massive, coiling dragon with scaled body and outstretched claws, portrayed in an elaborate and dramatic composition filling nearly the entire reverse surface. The legend SIEGFRIED THE DRAGONSLAYER is inscribed vertically along the left margin, with the date 2015 appearing in the lower right field. The antique finish accentuates the depth and dramatic chiaroscuro of the high-relief design. |
