Reverse description The reverse features a highly detailed rendition of the Matterhorn (4,478 m), its iconic pyramidal peak dominating the upper and central field. To the lower right, a bust-length portrait of Edward Whymper, leader of the first successful ascent in 1865, is depicted in period attire holding an ice axe. A colorful cluster of Alpine flora in polychrome enamel occupies the lower right foreground. The legend MOUNTAINS & FLORA arcs along the upper rim, while the inscriptions MATTERHORN / 4478 m appear in the lower left field. Additional text to the right reads 1st ascent of Matterhorn / 150 Years Anniversary, and the date 2015 appears on a ribbon scroll at the bottom.
