| Reverse description | The reverse presents an allegorical composition devoted to the Moon within the Mythology of the Solar System series. The Roman goddess Diana, deity of the Moon, of childbirth, and of the hunt, is depicted standing in full figure, holding her bow and accompanied by a quiver of arrows; a young deer stands beside her as her emblematic companion. The symbolic glyph of the Moon is incorporated into the design field alongside a representation of the lunar body itself. The series title MYTHOLOGY OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM appears as the primary legend at the top of the field, with THE MOON inscribed below, and the denomination 1 CROWN placed at the base. |
