The other side of the medalion is decorated with two burning hearts surrounded by a golden sun and two bunches of lily flowers. Please refer to the pictures.
Both sides of the medalion are protected by crystal (the crystal protecting the side depicting standing Virgin Mary has an almost unnoticeable small chip at its top, near the frame.
