| Reverse description | The reverse features Idéfix (Dogmatix), the beloved canine companion of Asterix, rendered in the classic Uderzo illustrative style. The small dog is depicted carrying a laurel wreath in his mouth, a traditional symbol of Olympic victory and honour. The character is shown in a lively, characterful pose consistent with the visual language of the original comic series. The upper field bears the title legend 'Astérix AUX JEUX OLYMPIQUES' identifying the commemorative theme. The design is clean and uncluttered, allowing the charming figural motif to dominate the coin's reverse field. |
