| Reverse description | A highly detailed, gold-toned applied relief depiction of the Palácio Nacional da Pena, the Romanticist royal palace perched atop the hills of Sintra, Portugal, occupying the central field of the coin. The palace is shown in a panoramic view, with its distinctive domed chapel, crenellated towers, and elaborate Manueline and Moorish architectural ornamentation rendered in exceptional sculptural detail. To the upper right, a globe logo accompanies the inscription WORLD MONUMENTS. The curved legend PORTUGAL - PALÁCIO NACIONAL DA PENA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower border. The background field features a textured sky and landscape treatment, enhancing the three-dimensional quality of the central motif. |
