| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed schematic depiction of the Solar System, with the Sun rendered at the upper field emitting stylized rays, surrounded by concentric elliptical orbital lines representing the planetary orbits. Several planets are individually portrayed along their respective orbits, with Saturn identifiable by its prominent rings, and smaller spherical bodies distributed across the remaining orbital paths. The composition evokes a classic heliocentric astronomical diagram, set against a deeply recessed field. The Latin legend TEMPORA MUTANTUR (meaning 'Times are changing') arcs prominently along the right and lower periphery of this irregular half-coin planchet. |
