Reverse description Two pioneering space explorers in full pressure suits are depicted in high relief at the center of the field: cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin appears in the lower left with his characteristic Soviet helmet visor, while astronaut Alan Shepard is shown to the right in his NASA suit, both rendered in meticulous detail evoking the heroic era of early spaceflight. The denomination 5 EURO appears prominently at the upper center, flanked by the names GAGARIN to the left and SHEPARD to the right along the upper periphery. The commemorative dates 1961·2011 arc along the lower border, marking the 50th anniversary of the first manned spaceflights. The Rome mint mark R is visible in the field. The engraver's signature M. DE SOTO appears in small characters at the lower center of the field.
