Composition of typical elements of the Lazio food and wine tradition: Roman artichoke, plate of amatriciana, bunch of Malvasia Puntinata grapes and Frascati wine in the typical glass carafe, inserted inside an octagon, which recalls the symbol of the Lazio Region, the whose external frame, an echinus decorated with ovules and darts, recalls the decorations of the coffered ceilings of the domes present in the ancient Roman Basilicas. In the background, map of the city of Rome. Around, the writing “REPUBBLICA ITALIANA”; at the bottom, the writing “LAZIO” and the author's signature “M. BONIFACIO". Coin with colorful elements.
