Reverse description Three standing figures in the round field symbolise the family unit: a man resting an axe over his shoulder to the left, a woman at centre, and a child to the right. The denomination is divided by the figures, with the numeral and unit flanking the central group. The engravers' names COLANERI INC and T. GISMONDI appear in the lower field, serving as attribution inscriptions within the design.

Additional information

San Marino's gold output in the 1990s leaned heavily on United Nations observance years as a rationale for limited commemorative issues, and the 1994 International Year of the Family was no exception. The denomination itself — the scudo plural — harks back to San Marino's pre-lira monetary history, revived here as a collectible unit rather than anything that ever saw a pocket.
