| Reverse description | The reverse presents a portrait of Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, widely credited as the creator of the periodic table, positioned prominently above a stylised arrangement of elemental symbols drawn from the periodic table. The atomic symbols are deliberately selected and organised to spell out the phrase 'One Hundred and Fifty Years', commemorating the 150th anniversary of Mendeleev's publication of the periodic table in 1869. The legend PERIODIC TABLE appears at the top of the field, with the engraver's initials NM present. The design was executed by Natasha Muhl and combines portraiture with typographic ingenuity in a modern commemorative style. |
