At center sits a woman and two cherubs on either side of her, one of which holds a caduceus. Surrounding this is a border of both oak and bay leaves. Beneath the image are several books, one opened.
A microscope and a shelf full of books, with an open book in the forefront, are at the center of this plate. Above, surrounded by elaborate design, are two swords crossed with a lion supporting a cross at the center. Within this design is the motto Forte et Fidele.
