| Reverse description | Three nude female figures in high relief, adapted from Lucas Cranach the Elder's celebrated composition of the Three Graces, rendered with characteristic Renaissance elegance; the central figure faces forward wearing a feathered hat and a translucent drapery, flanked by two companions shown in three-quarter rear view. In the lower left field, Cranach's emblematic winged serpent device is depicted. To the right, the denomination indicator ARG. and the fineness mark 1000 appear alongside a Chi-Rho cross symbol. The Roman numeral I appears in the left field. The circular legend ARS LONGA VITA BREVIS EST arches along the upper periphery, and the date 1972 is inscribed in the lower exergue. |
