Reverse description A stylized female figure, rendered in a flat modernist manner reminiscent of ancient Cypriot terracotta art, is depicted in three-quarter view with an elaborately patterned headdress. She raises one arm to support a large decorative basket overflowing with an abundant harvest of fruits, grapes, figs, and foliage, symbolizing agricultural prosperity in the spirit of the FAO. The denomination numeral 500 is prominently displayed to the right of the figure in the field. The design is uncluttered, with no peripheral legend, allowing the central composition to dominate the flan.
