Reverse description The reverse presents a richly detailed composition celebrating Galileo Galilei. In the lower portion, a high-relief portrait of Galileo is depicted beside a celestial globe and holding a telescope, set against a deeply engraved starry sky field incorporating a diagram of the heliocentric solar system. Three scholarly figures are shown in the middle ground, referencing the scientific legacy of Galilean astronomy. To the left, a relief image of the Leaning Tower of Pisa is visible, while to the right a celestial body is depicted. A curved Cyrillic legend along the upper rim reads ГАЛИЛЕО ГАЛИЛЕЙ, accompanied by the birth and death years 1564 and 1642.
