| Reverse description | A finely detailed Nativity scene occupies the full field, depicting the figures of Mary and Joseph in adoration as they lean over the newborn Christ Child, who lies swaddled in a manger rendered in high relief. Joseph, bearded and robed, is shown to the left holding a staff, while Mary, her flowing hair and draped garments rendered with delicate engraving, kneels to the right in a posture of reverent devotion. The legend CHRISTMAS is inscribed along the upper rim in spaced Latin capitals, and the date 2010 appears in the lower exergue integrated into the manger scene. |
