| Reverse description | A seated female allegory of Justice occupies the central field, depicted facing forward, enthroned, holding a sword in her right hand and scales in her left. The word IVSTITIA appears in the lower field beneath the figure, divided across the composition. The circular legend STATO·DELLA·CITTA·DEL·VATICANO runs along the upper periphery, while the denomination L.2 is inscribed in the exergue. The design is executed in clean, classicising style consistent with Mistruzzi's numismatic work for the Vatican. |
