| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold scientific composition commemorating the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth. A large, partially gold-plated DNA double helix dominates the centre and right of the field, rendered in vivid three-dimensional relief with one strand in gold plating and the other in polished silver; a coiled gold RNA or protein chain emerges from the upper portion of the helix. To the left, a silver X-shaped chromosome is depicted in plain relief against the mirror-polished field. The commemorative legend arcs along the upper rim, with the subsidiary inscription and date appearing in the lower right field. |
