Reverse description The central device depicts a stylized crozier (bishop's pastoral staff) rendered in bold relief, its head formed by two volutes decorated with intricate Viking-age interlace ornament, commemorating the millennium of Christianity in Iceland. The circular legend '+ KRISTNI Í ÞÚSUND ÁR +' arcs across the upper field, while the dates '1000' and '2000' flank the base of the crozier in the lower field, separated by cross motifs, all set against a deeply mirrored proof background.
