| Reverse description | The reverse presents an expressive, modernist composition designed by Jorio Vivarelli, depicting a stylised human hand in the lower central field with concentric circular lines emanating from the palm, evoking the imprint or contaminating impact of pesticides on the natural environment. Diagonal wave-like lines in the background field suggest disturbed soil or corrupted terrain, reinforcing the ecological theme. The engraver's signature J. VIVARELLI appears in the lower right field. The circumferential legend L'IMPRONTA DEGLI INSETTICIDI DELL'UOMO arcs across the upper and right periphery. |
