2004 (IT) – 50th Anniversary of the World Food Program (UNC)

A globe tilted to the right bearing the inscription ‘WORLD FOOD PROGRAMME’ with an ear of wheat, an ear of maize and an ear of rice coming out from its border. The three grains representing the world’s basic sources of nourishment. The monogram of the Italian Republic (and R superimposed over and I) appears to the right of the globe with a smaller combination of the letters U and P below, as initials of the engraver. To the upper left of the globe are the mint mark and the date with the twelve five-pointed stars in the outer rim representing the European Union.
