| Obverse description | Portrait of the Italian Baroque painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio rendered in high relief at center, depicted as a young man with tousled hair and a short beard, facing slightly to the right. To the lower left of the portrait, architectural elements or column forms are faintly rendered in the field, evoking the artist's dramatic visual style. The circular legend REPUBBLICA DI SAN MARINO arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while the engraver's signature MA CASSOL appears in small characters at the lower right of the portrait. The overall design is executed in a neoclassical numismatic style befitting a commemorative issue. |
