| Reverse description | The reverse presents a humorous pugilistic scene drawn from the Astérix universe, depicting the corpulent Obélix squaring off against the Roman legionary Claudius Cornedurus in an exaggerated boxing pose. The small dog Idéfix (Dogmatix) cowers behind Obélix's legs, adding a further comic element to the composition. The design is enriched with decorative motifs referencing the ancient Olympic Games and Hellenic sporting culture, distributed across the field to frame the central action. The overall artistic treatment faithfully reproduces the ligne claire style associated with the original Goscinny and Uderzo albums. The title inscription 'Astérix AUX JEUX OLYMPIQUES' arcs across the upper field as the principal legend. |
