Reverse description The reverse of this egg-shaped silver coin is dominated by a stylised pine cone motif rendered in gold-plated relief against a vivid cobalt blue enamel background, evoking the decorative aesthetic of Imperial Fabergé eggs. The overlapping scalloped scales, arranged in a regular pattern across the entire oval field, are gold-plated and rise in graduated rows from the base to the apex of the flan. Four brilliant-cut Swarovski crystal stones are set at intervals along the central vertical axis of the composition, adding further decorative opulence. A plain silver border frames the coloured and gilded central design, cleanly separating it from the coin's edge. No inscriptions appear on the reverse.
