His plays – tragedies, comedies and historical dramatizations – are among the brightest jewels in the world literature crown.

In the inner circle is an image of Shakespeare based on  the portrait by Martin Droeshout.

On the edge of the inner circle on the left is the inscription “William Shakespeare”, in the upper right “1616-2016” and in the lower right the name of the issuing country “San Marino”.

At six o’clock is the mint mark R and at five o’clock, the collar is the mark of the engraver MB.
