| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a stylised modernist composition showing the silhouette of Christ standing upon a cloud with arms outstretched in a welcoming or benediction gesture. Four smaller human silhouettes are arranged below the central figure, rendered in a simplified, contemporary graphic style evocative of millennium themes. The legend LUMEN CHRISTI appears prominently in the field, with the word CANDIO inscribed beneath. The overall design is executed in a restrained, sculptural relief typical of Swiss commemorative coinage of the period. |
