| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly colored commemorative scene celebrating the 450th birthday of William Shakespeare, dominated by a pink-toned background evoking the famous balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet. To the left, a finely engraved portrait of Shakespeare set within an ornate baroque silver frame occupies the upper quadrant, accompanied by a holographic element below. In the central and right field, sculpted figures of Romeo and Juliet are depicted in three-dimensional relief, with Juliet rendered as a classical draped bust and Romeo shown gazing upward from a balcony amid flowering vines and a stone archway. The legend THE 450TH BIRTHDAY OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE arcs along the upper periphery, ROMEO AND JULIET appears along the lower left, and the date 2014 and fineness mark 5 OZ AG 0.999 are inscribed in the lower field. |
