Reverse description The reverse bears a full-color reproduction of Raphael's oil painting 'Young Woman with a Unicorn' (c. 1505–1506), applied across the entire rectangular planchet surface. The composition depicts a young noblewoman in three-quarter view, attired in a Renaissance gown of red, white, and gold with an off-shoulder neckline, her décolletage adorned with a gold pendant necklace, while she cradles a small white unicorn in her arms. Classical architectural columns flank the figure at left and right, framing an expansive luminous landscape visible in the background. The color application faithfully reproduces the palette of the original work housed in the Galleria Borghese, Rome, with no reverse lettering present.
