| Reverse description | The reverse depicts five musical automaton figures in high relief, arranged in a group scene: a standing figure with a cape and feathered hat, a central figure holding an open book, a seated figure before a harp, and two figures on the right, one holding a mandolin and one seated at a keyboard instrument. The curved legend along the rim references the Madeleine de Galea collection with the dates 1874–1956. |
