Reverse description The reverse features a dynamic scene depicting the storming of the Bastille fortress, rendered in high relief as befitting a piedfort striking. The motto of the French Revolution LIBERTAD • IGUALDAD FRATERNIDAD curves along the upper periphery in the legend. Below the central scene, the commemorative inscription TOMA DE LA BASTILLA appears, with the dual dates 1789 and 1989 in the lower exergual area flanking the mintmark. The composition balances historical narrative imagery with bold, legible lettering throughout the field.
