| Reverse description | A stylized portrait of the Post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh is formed entirely through the repeated typographic arrangement of the text VAN GOGH, with the dense accumulation of letterforms of varying scales defining the facial features and contours across the field. Large incuse numerals 5 appear prominently at the lower centre, accompanied by the euro symbol, serving as the denomination indicator. The engraver's initials KM appear in the lower field, and the numeral 5 along with date elements are woven into the overall typographic design. The reverse continues the same avant-garde typographic concept as the obverse, presenting the denomination 5 € alongside the artist's name embedded within the portrait. |
