| Reverse description | The reverse features the facsimile signature of Norwegian Nobel Prize-winning author Knut Hamsun prominently displayed, accompanied by the years 1859 and 2009 denoting his birth year and the 150th anniversary of his birth. A reproduction of Hamsun's original handwritten manuscript notes for his celebrated novel Markens Grøde (Growth of the Soil) fills the left portion of the field, with the author's facial features rendered as a ghostly portrait partially visible beneath the manuscript text, creating a layered artistic composition. |
