| Reverse description | The central disk of the reverse is finished with a black enamel inlay, evoking the fully eclipsed sun in totality with the solar corona effect. The date of the eclipse, '29 MART 2006', is inscribed in the lower field beneath the central motif. As on the obverse, the outer annular border is applied with a gold-toned coating, creating a striking two-tone contrast between the dark central field and the luminous outer ring — a deliberate artistic reference to the phenomenon of totality. |
