Reverse description The reverse presents a finely engraved adaptation of Leonardo da Vinci's celebrated painting La Gioconda (the Mona Lisa), depicted as a three-quarter-length portrait of a seated woman with loosely draped hair, her hands folded in her lap, occupying the majority of the coin's field against a plain mirror-polished background. Small olive sprigs flank the lower portion of the figure at left and right within the beaded border. The bilingual inscription LA GIOCONDA in Latin letters arcs along the lower left rim, separated by a dash from the Arabic الچُكوندَا along the lower right, identifying the subject.
