Obverse: composition of typical elements from Lazio food and wine traditions: “Romanesco” artichokes, Amatriciana, a bunch of Malvasia Putinata grapes and Frascati wine in the classic glass carafe set within an octagon recalling the symbol of the Lazio Region and whose outer frame, an escutcheon decorated with ovules and darts, features decorations of coffered ceilings of ancient Roman basilicas. In the background, the plan of the city of Rome. Around, “REPUBBLICA ITALIANA”, below, “LAZIO” and the name of the designer “M. BONIFACIO”. Coin with coloured elements.
Reverse: depiction of a Roman aqueduct with maritime pines, characteristic of Lazio landscape, standing out. Below, maritime subjects drawn from the mosaics of the Thermal Baths of Neptune in Ostia Antica. In the centre, the inscription “SAPORI D’ITALIA”, visually divides the field; above, on the left, the value “5 EURO”; below, “R”, identifying the Mint of Rome, and “2023”, the year of the coin’s issue.
