Reverse description The reverse, designed by artist Maja Lisa Engelhardt, features a stylised astronomical composition commemorating Tycho Brahe's observation of the supernova of 1572 in the constellation Cassiopeia. A prominent multi-rayed star burst dominates the upper field, representing the nova stella, surrounded by the connected stars of the Cassiopeia constellation rendered as smaller multi-pointed stars linked by fine lines. The date 1572 is inscribed in large numerals in the lower central field, with the denomination 500 KRONER appearing along the lower border. The legend TYCHO BRAHE · STELLA NOVA arcs around the upper periphery.
