| Reverse description | The upper field bears three lines of legend naming the conference themes, with the RIO 92 event logo below in relief. In the central field, a globe in low relief showing the South American continent with Brazil prominently highlighted appears to the left, while two outstretched hands in high relief extend toward it from the right, evoking stewardship of the Earth. In the background, the silhouette of Pão de Açúcar and Morro da Urca hills with the Rio de Janeiro shoreline is rendered in low relief. The lower register carries the legend of the organizing authority in three lines, with the engraver's signature SEGALLA at the left. |
