| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of Raphael's fresco 'The Judgement of Solomon,' depicting the biblical scene in which King Solomon orders a living child to be divided between two women claiming to be its mother. The central composition shows a soldier raising his sword over the infant while the true mother reaches forward in anguish, rendered in warm golden and ochre tones characteristic of the Vatican Stanze frescoes. The color panel is framed by an elaborate milled silver border of Renaissance-inspired scrollwork and floral ornamental relief, with a decorative medallion at the upper center. The coin's rectangular format closely echoes the proportions of the original fresco panel. |
