Under two palm trees tied together by a padlocked chain a pair of birds (maybe pigeons or pheasants) face or kiss each other like the human couple on obverse. On background a river with a forest on the other bank. Above the trees a hand coming from cloud holds the key of the padlock and also divides the legend.
