- Reverse: An Alchemist portrayed as a mad scientist wearing steampunk inspired garb, while holding aloft a bright green bottle-shaped insert. Shelving bearing vials, jars and ancient tomes covers the entirety of the background. A wood plank suspended by a chain above carries the inscription "ALCHEMIST," the letters of which are enhanced with fluorescent printing. After exposure to light, the letters and the bottle glow a vibrant acid green in the dark
Devoting their lives in search of panacea and the elixir of life; alchemists live on the edge of mysticism and science. They tried turning lead to gold, climbed the heights of imagination, and established the foundations for modern chemistry, physics, metallurgy, and medicine.
