| Reverse description | Vulcan, the god of fire and the forge, depicted standing at an anvil and striking metal with a hammer, symbolising Italian industrial labour. The date appears to the left of the central device and the denomination L.50 to the right. The mint mark R, for the Rome Mint, is positioned in the lower right field. The composition is bold and dynamic, executed in a style characteristic of the postwar Italian figurative tradition. |
