| Reverse description | A highly detailed rendition of Albrecht Dürer's celebrated drawing 'Praying Hands' (1508) occupies the central field, depicted in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof background. The clasped hands are shown in three-quarter view with fingers pointing upward, faithfully reproducing the composition of Dürer's original work. The legend 'MANOS REZANTES' arcs across the upper field in two words, with 'DÜRER' inscribed along the lower periphery. Two small five-pointed stars flank the lower legend as decorative elements. The overall presentation emphasizes the artistic and commemorative nature of the issue. |
