| Reverse description | Central cartouche framed by an ornate shield-shaped border containing three stylised solar faces with radiating flame-like rays, a motif referencing Bruno's heliocentric philosophical vision. Below the suns, a facsimile of Giordano Bruno's signature is inscribed, accompanied by a secondary cursive inscription reading Nolano — a reference to his birthplace of Nola. The denomination LIRE 1000 appears within a banner at the top of the cartouche, and the commemorative dates 1600·2000 mark the four-hundredth anniversary of Bruno's martyrdom. The mint mark R (Rome) and the engraver's signature L. DE SIMONE are present in the lower field. |
