| Obverse description | Two male figures stand facing each other in the central field, clasping hands in a gesture of brotherhood — one clothed in European dress, the other draped in a simple garment. In the background to the left, an African village with huts and palm trees is depicted in low relief; to the right, five figures are shown dancing around a tree. The upper legend arcs around the field, while a horizontal line separates the lower inscription from the central scene, with the engraver's initials G.F.F. in the lower exergue. |
