| Reverse description | Reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's original manuscript drawing depicting a scythed chariot, rendered in a coloured facsimile style replicating the aged, sepia-toned parchment of the original codex. The design faithfully recreates da Vinci's mechanical invention study, showing the chariot with rotating scythe blades projecting from the wheel axles, accompanied by the characteristic mirror-script annotations in Leonardo's hand visible throughout the field. The rectangular format of the coin complements the manuscript page presentation. The surface treatment mimics the texture and colouration of Renaissance-era vellum. |
