| Reverse description | Central field depicts a stylized allegorical composition commemorating the International Year of the Woman: a mother tenderly cradling an infant in her arms, rendered in a flowing, modern artistic style. Surrounding the figures, abstract wave-like forms and a branch suggest the natural world and nurturing life. The legend CITTA DEL VATICANO arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination L. 500 is inscribed in bold characters at the lower field. The Rome mint mark R appears to the right of the denomination. |
