| Descrizione del rovescio |
The reverse is dominated by a large, elaborate central guilloche medallion in rose and blue tones, composed of interlocking geometric lathe-work patterns radiating symmetrically from the centre. A rectangular cartouche with the inscription GOVERNMENT OF CYPRUS in bold letterpress is positioned at the centre of the medallion. The overall design is uncluttered, relying entirely on the complexity of the engine-turned guilloche for its anti-counterfeiting aesthetic. |
