Reverse description The reverse presents a relief reproduction of a medieval fresco from the interior of the Church of the Holy Archangels in Rogoz, depicting three nimbed archangels rendered in a flat, iconic Byzantine style characteristic of 17th-century Romanian ecclesiastical art. The central archangel is haloed and faces the viewer frontally, flanked by two attendant figures with large feathered wings, all set before a decorative horizontal border containing liturgical vessels. The lower field is divided into two legend areas: to the left, the inscription 'monumente de arta medievala crestina' in a script typeface, and to the right, the church dedication 'BISERICA SFINTII ARHANGHELI' above the location 'ROGOZ' and the founding date '1663' in larger roman lettering.
