Reverse description The reverse presents a detailed panoramic silhouette of the Istanbul skyline, illuminated by a Turkish crescent moon, evoking the eastern terminus of the legendary Orient Express route. Beneath the cityscape, two decorative motifs drawn from the historic train's interior coach ornamentation are depicted: an Art Nouveau decorative painted panel and the embossed heraldic logo of the Orient Express. Inscriptions commemorate the 130th anniversary of the inaugural Orient Express journey of 1883, rendered in both English and Czech. The overall composition reflects the opulence and romance associated with this iconic railway service. The design is contained within the distinctive oval format of the flan.
