Definitions

en
A person whose primary role with respect to monetary instruments is to be depicted in the iconography. Although many rulers who were authorities or issuers of money may also have been depicted (with separate metadata properties in the encoding of numismatic objects or types), a person whose role is defined as 'portrait' only serves that role in connection to a political organization.
