The reverse depicts the statue of Perseus Triumphant, sculpted by Canova in the late 1800s and placed in the Vatican Museums by Pope Pius VII. To the right of the statue we see Canovas face in profile, reflecting the marble self-portrait sculpted in 1812 and located next to his funerary monument in Possagno. Laurel leaves and ribbons complete the coin design.
