| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into two contrasting halves: the left field bears the UNESCO logo above the bold denomination 50 EURO and the date 2016, with the inscription Paris, rives de la Seine in a curved legend along the upper left. The right half features a detailed cartographic plan of the Parisian riverbank, depicting the street layout and footprints of the Petit Palais and Musée d'Orsay as seen from above. The legend PETIT PALAIS and ORSAY appear in the field to the right, identifying the two UNESCO World Heritage-listed landmarks. A stylised curve representing the River Seine flows across the lower portion of the design, unifying both halves of the composition. The overall design is executed with precision engraving characteristic of Monnaie de Paris proof issues. |
