| Reverse description | A standing female figure, rendered in a stylized modernist idiom and evoking an allegorical representation of abundance or the Madonna, is depicted facing forward with arms outstretched, surrounded by multiple stalks of wheat rising from the lower field — a direct allusion to the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) theme of combating world hunger. The denomination numeral 50 appears in the lower right field. The circular legend CITTA DEL VATICANO arcs across the upper portion of the coin between the rim beading. |
