Reverse description The reverse depicts a fully colorized McDonnell Douglas DC-9 commercial jet aircraft in flight, rendered in polychrome enamel applied to the struck relief, showing white and grey fuselage livery with a red and dark maroon cheatline and a Swiss-cross motif on the tail fin. The aircraft is shown in left-profile flight above a dramatic colorized alpine mountain landscape with blue glaciers, snow-capped peaks, and scattered clouds rendered in light blue and white enamel. The curved legend L'HISTOIRE DE L'AVIATION arcs along the upper rim, with the dates 1931-2001 inscribed along the lower rim denoting the commemorated era of aviation history. The year of issue, 2003, appears in the left field. The combination of struck relief and vivid multicolor application creates a striking collectible presentation.
