| Beschrijving voorzijde | The inner core features a forward-facing portrait of Nobel laureate Rita Levi-Montalcini in the foreground, rendered after a photograph by Manuela Fabbri, with a microscope depicted in the background derived from a medal designed by her brother, the artist Gino Levi-Montalcini, whose base is fashioned in the form of a horseshoe — a good-luck charm associated with her receipt of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1986. The arched legend RITA LEVI-MONTALCINI runs along the upper periphery of the inner core, while the country identifier RI (Repubblica Italiana) appears at the left, accompanied by the Rome Mint mark R and the designer's initials SP (Silvia Petrassi). The date 2024 is situated in the exergue, and the twelve stars of the European Union encircle the design within the outer ring. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rita Levi-Montalcini spent decades working under a self-imposed ban — Mussolini's 1938 racial laws barred Jews from academic and professional life, so she built a clandestine laboratory in her bedroom in Turin, continuing her neurological research using fertilized chicken eggs. That work eventually fed into her discovery of nerve growth factor, for which she shared the 1986 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Stanley Cohen. She remained scientifically active past her hundredth birthday, the last surviving Nobel laureate of her generation when she died in 2012.
