| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed relief portraying Princess Turandot, the central figure of Puccini's eponymous opera, shown as a three-quarter bust facing left, wearing traditional East Asian court attire with elaborately styled hair. To her left, a stylized Chinese dragon in high relief occupies the field, while to her right, a Chinese pagoda and architectural elements are depicted in the background. A small inlaid synthetic red crystal element appears in the upper right area of the field. The Cyrillic inscription 'ТУРАНДОТ' arcs along the upper periphery of the coin. The overall composition is rendered in an antique oxidized finish, emphasizing the dramatic contrasts of the design. |
