| Reverse description | Two standing allegorical female figures flank a bust of King Christian V set upon an ornate pedestal adorned with foliate decoration and the royal monogram: Piety at left, holding a cross and an open book, and Justice at right, holding a sword and scales, both crowning the royal bust with a laurel wreath. The circular Latin legend occupies the upper rim, while the engraver's name and the date of the king's death appear in the exergue below a dividing line. |
