Reverse description The reverse presents a thematic composition from the Mythology of the Solar System series, centred on the planet Venus. The Roman goddess of love and beauty, Venus, is depicted seated within an open scallop shell, referencing the classical iconographic tradition most famously associated with Botticelli's depiction of her birth. The astrological and astronomical symbol of Venus is incorporated into the design field. The denomination ONE CROWN appears in the lower portion of the design, framed by the series title MYTHOLOGY OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM arcing across the upper field and the name VENUS prominently displayed.
