The central image on the reverse is a medicinal plant featured in Brother Cyprian’s herbal. Depicted on the right side is part of the Red Monastery set against the backdrop of the Three Crowns Massif a landmark in the Pieniny Mountains. Above this image, in the upper right of the design, are the dates of Brother Cyprian’s birth ‘1724’ and death ‘1775’, one above the other. To the left of the plant are the stylised letters ‘RL’, referring to the coin’s designer Roman Lugár, and below them is the mint mark of the Kremnica Mint, consisting of the letters ‘MK’ placed between two dies. The curved inscription FRÁTER CYPRIÁN appears along the left edge, and to its right, also in curved lettering, is the Red Monastery’s Slovak name ‘ČERVENÝ KLÁŠTOR’.
