Reverse description The reverse features a full-colour anime-style depiction of a female personification of Cancer, rendered in a dynamic three-quarter pose with long dark hair adorned with large crimson claw-like ornaments and gold jewellery. She extends one hand forward emanating a glowing aquatic energy, set against a deep blue starfield background with a luminous white crab motif behind her; the Cancer zodiacal glyph appears at the top of the coloured insert. The inscription CANCER is lettered on a crimson ribbon banner at the lower right of the coloured field. The coloured central scene is enclosed within a raised beaded border, beyond which an outer silver annular border is populated with twelve finely engraved figural scenes depicting each sign of the zodiac in a continuous frieze.
