Reverse description The reverse presents a portrait of Jules Verne positioned to the left, rendered against a detailed cartographic background depicting a world map. At the center, the inscription AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS identifies the commemorated novel, accompanied by the author's name Jules Verne and the year of issue 2023. A prominent quotation attributed to Verne runs along the upper portion of the field: AH! YOUNG PEOPLE, TRAVEL IF YOU CAN. AND IF YOU CANNOT TRAVEL, TRAVEL ALL THE SAME. The design combines portraiture with geographic and literary references in a richly detailed composition befitting a large-format commemorative issue.
