| Reverse description | Two pigeons are depicted in high relief within a nest composed of interwoven twigs, rendered in an expressive sculptural style by Luciano Minguzzi. One pigeon stands prominently at centre, facing left with its head raised, while the second rests to the left with wings partially extended; eggs are visible within the nest below. A leafy branch appears to the right of the composition, adding naturalistic detail to the design. The denomination L. 500 is inscribed in the lower field, with the engravers' signatures MINGUZZI and MONASSI INC. appearing below. |
