Reverse description A detailed architectural rendering of the Château de Chillon occupies the centre of the reverse, depicted in a stylised, graphic engraving style that emphasises the castle's multiple towers, turrets, crenellated walls, and lakeside foundations. The mountain silhouette of the Alps is rendered in a bold geometric manner in the upper right background, contrasting with the finely detailed castle in the foreground. The circular legend 'CHATEAU DE CHILLON' is arranged around the left and lower periphery of the field in large, spaced capital letters, integrating typographically with the architectural design. The engraver's initials appear discreetly in the upper right field near the mountain motif.
