| Reverse description | The central field depicts a detailed engraved rendering of the Matterhorn (Monte Cervino), the iconic pyramidal peak of the Alps, shown rising steeply above a rocky glacial base with fine incised lines indicating the mountain's rocky faces and ridges. The design spans both the inner disc and partially overlaps the outer ring. The bilingual legend MATTERHORN · CERVIN — giving the peak's German and French names respectively — arcs across the upper portion of the outer ring. |
