| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylised spiral composition in which a succession of transport vehicles advances clockwise from the centre outward: a bicycle, a steam train with two carriages, a truck, an automobile, a propeller aircraft, a ship, a jet aircraft, and a rocket, representing the evolution of human mobility. The legend 'VERKEHRSHAUS DER SCHWEIZ' (Swiss Museum of Transport) arcs along the upper periphery, while the commemorative dates '1959 - 2009' mark the institution's golden jubilee. The designer's initials 'W . M . 08' appear in the lower field. The overall design evokes the museum's encyclopaedic scope across land, sea, air, and space transport. |
