Obverse description Central effigy of Antoni Gaudí facing right in portrait relief, encircled by a decorative frieze of sculpted chimneys and rooftop elements drawn from his iconic Casa Batlló and Casa Milà architectural works. The legend GAUDÍ AÑO INTERNACIONAL ESPAÑA arcs around the design within the field, identifying the subject, the commemorative occasion, and the issuing nation. The composition reflects Gaudí's distinctive Catalan Modernisme style, rendered in high-relief proof finish.
