| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, naturalistically rendered depiction of a shrimp (Pandalus borealis), an economically significant species in Icelandic waters, shown in profile occupying the upper and central portion of the field. The shrimp's antennae, legs, and segmented body are rendered with fine engraved lines conveying anatomical precision. Below the shrimp, the numeral 50 is struck in large, bold digits at the lower center of the field, denoting the denomination. A plain inner border frames the design, and the field is otherwise unadorned. |
