| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized left-facing portrait bust of Maria Skłodowska-Curie in a modernist, Art Deco-influenced composition designed by Anna Jarnuszkiewicz. The effigy is overlaid with a bold horizontal band representing a radiation beam or spectrographic element, crossed by diagonal lines suggestive of radioactive rays, evoking her pioneering discoveries in radioactivity. The chemical symbol 'Ra' (Radium), the element she discovered and named, is inscribed to the right of the portrait in the field. The legend 'MARIA SKŁODOWSKA CURIE' curves along the lower periphery of the coin in raised Latin letters against the mirror-polished proof field. |
