Reverse description The reverse presents a dynamic allegorical scene commemorating the 200th anniversary of Jakub Jan Ryba's Czech Christmas Mass. A winged angel is depicted in full flight across the central field, sounding a long herald's trumpet toward the upper left, with a radiant star and streaking comet above. In the lower left field, the silhouette of a church with a distinctive onion-domed steeple evokes the pastoral Bohemian setting of the original composition. The legend JAKUB JAN RYBA arcs along the upper border, ČESKÁ MŠE VÁNOČNÍ runs along the lower border, and the commemorative dates 1796–1996 appear at the right, all in Latin script.
