Data sheet
The reverse of Pistrucci's original medal features two equestrian figures in the center with the features of the Duke of Wellington and General Blücher galloping to glory as they are led by a figure of Victory in flight. This coin is therefore the second in the set with the previous issue, where the obverse of the medal was struck.
The obverse side is the author of M. Jennings, who made the official coin portrait of His Majesty King Charles III.
