| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold depiction of the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, shown as a towering bronze male figure straddling a harbour entrance. Within the design, a gold inset replicates an ancient Greek coin of Rhodes from approximately 400 BC, serving as an authentic numismatic relic embedded within the larger composition. The legend WONDERS OF THE WORLD arcs along the upper border, with THE COLOSSUS OF RHODES in the central field and the denomination 1 CROWN at the base. |
