| Reverse description | The reverse presents an intricate stained-glass-style composition rendered in vivid polychrome color, featuring a complex mosaic of over 109 individual symbols representing the breadth of human knowledge and its intellectual roots. The design is organized across a densely decorated rectangular field in the Aurum banknote format, with geometric and pictographic motifs drawn from diverse cultural traditions. The legends KNOWLEDGE and ROOTS of HUMANITY appear within the field, accompanied by the weight inscription 1/200TH OZ · FINE GOLD. The multicolored enamel-like coloring technique gives the piece an appearance reminiscent of a cathedral stained-glass window, lending it a distinctive artistic character among contemporary gold issues. |
