| Reverse description | The coin takes the form of a three-dimensional sphere representing the planet Earth, with a richly colored and gold-plated surface depicting the continents and oceans in vivid detail. The landmasses are rendered with distinct borders and naturalistic coloration, accented with gold plating to highlight the terrestrial regions, while the oceanic areas are presented in deep, intense shades of blue evoking the 'Blue Marble' imagery. The world map is executed with considerable geographic accuracy, capturing the global distribution of continents and major bodies of water in a visually striking manner. The overall sculptural composition commemorates the natural beauty of Earth in a format unique among collector coinage. |
