Reverse
For the 50 euro gold coin, it has been used a technique that involves two planes, one with satin gold and the other with polished gold. Artist Chiara Principe depicts on the reverse side of the coin the concept of war and peace linked by a single element, barbed wire symbolising war and suffering that slowly turns into an olive branch representing peace and rebirth. On the left side of the coin, behind the barbed wire rep- resenting war, a man holding a rifle is seen with smoke and rubble in the distance shown in the background. On the right in the foreground, behind the olive branch representing peace, are a father and a little girl with a flower in hand watching two birds fly high in the sky.
