Reverse description Two busts depicted in high relief dominate the upper field: a larger bust of Albert Schweitzer wearing a colonial pith helmet and moustache faces right, with a smaller bust of an African child facing left beneath him, and a palm tree rising between them. In the lower field, a steamship named 'EUROPE' is depicted sailing left on stylized water, commemorating Schweitzer's 1913 arrival at Lambaréné. The engraver's signature 'F. Steiner' appears at lower right. Surrounding legends read 'ALBERT SCHWEITZER', 'ARRIVÉE A LAMBARÉNÉ', '80e ANNIVERSAIRE', and the dates '1913 - 1993'.
