The reverse design of the coin was inspired by a quote from Adlai Stevenson following her death: “She would rather light a candle than curse the darkness, and her glow has warmed the world.” The design features a depiction of Mrs. Roosevelt’s hand lighting a candle with the glow from its light rising over a stylized graphic of the Earth’s horizon to symbolize her life’s work and the global impact of her humanitarian initiatives.
