| Reverse description | The reverse features a colourised Art Nouveau-style depiction of a young woman rendered in the manner of Alphonse Mucha, occupying most of the field. The figure has flowing auburn hair adorned with the astrological glyph for Scorpio, and gazes directly toward the viewer with a contemplative expression. An intricate mosaic or stained-glass decorative background in relief surrounds the figure. At the lower centre, a raised uncoloured medallion bears the relief image of a scorpion alongside the Scorpio zodiac symbol. The legend SCORPIO arcs along the upper right field. |
