| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-color reproduction of Raphael's celebrated panel painting Alba Madonna (c. 1510–1511), depicting the Virgin Mary seated in a landscape with the Christ Child and the young Saint John the Baptist. The composition faithfully renders the tondo format of the original work, now housed in the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., with rich polychrome coloring applied to the central medallion. A decorative wreath encircles the painted scene, forming a distinct border between the colorized artwork and the polished coin field. |
