| Reverse description | Central motif depicts Eddie, the iconic mascot of the British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, rendered as an Egyptian pharaoh in the manner of the band's 1984 'Powerslave' album artwork. Eddie's skeletal, mummified face peers out from beneath a striped nemes headdress, rendered in bold sculptural relief filling the majority of the field. Columns of stylised Egyptian hieroglyphic symbols flank the central figure on both sides of the field. The legend 'POWERSLAVE' arcs across the upper field in period-appropriate lettering, while 'IRON MAIDEN' appears in the band's distinctive logotype font along the lower field. |
