| Reverse description | The reverse features a richly coloured reproduction of the iconic Byzantine-style icon of the Black Madonna of Czestochowa (Our Lady of Czestochowa), rendered in vivid warm tones of gold, amber, and deep brown against a contrasting background. The Virgin Mary is depicted in three-quarter view, wearing a crown and ornate mantle, with the Christ Child presented before her. The composition faithfully evokes the venerated original icon housed at the Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa, Poland. This coin is the sixth in a series of 24 devoted to renowned Marian icons. |
