| Reverse description | A three-quarter facing bust portrait of Albert Einstein is engraved in the left and lower central field, depicting the physicist with his characteristic dishevelled hair and mustache, his hands clasped before him in a contemplative pose. To the right of the portrait, Einstein's celebrated mass-energy equivalence formula E=mc2 appears in the field. The legend ALBERT EINSTEIN * 1879-1955 arcs along the upper periphery, with the year of issue 2005 inscribed at the base of the design. The deeply mirrored proof fields provide strong contrast against the frosted portrait relief. |
