Reverse description The reverse features a richly colored scene commemorating Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, set against a moonlit courtyard rendered in pink and rose tones. To the left, a portrait bust of William Shakespeare is displayed within an ornate baroque cartouche, with a young Romeo figure kneeling below in supplication. To the right, a sculpted silver effigy of Juliet stands in three-quarter view with hands clasped at her breast, positioned beneath an arched colonnade draped with flowering vines. The curved legend 'THE 450TH BIRTHDAY OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'ROMEO AND JULIET' and the date '2014' appear in the lower field, accompanied by the fineness mark '1 OZ AG 0.999'.
