| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, full-field depiction of the planet Mars rendered as an incomplete jigsaw puzzle, with the entire surface engraved with interlocking puzzle piece outlines. The Martian surface is reproduced in vivid antique reddish-orange coloring with dark topographical features, including canyon systems and craters rendered naturalistically. Several puzzle pieces in the upper right quadrant are shown scattered and partially detached, revealing the bare silver field beneath and dramatically emphasizing the puzzle concept. The antique finish enhances the three-dimensional texture of the engraved puzzle joints across the entire reverse field. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse. |
