Reverse description A descending dove in flight is depicted at center, its wings spread downward, symbolizing the Huguenot refugees who fled to the Cape Colony. The dove and flanking ornamental design elements divide commemorative dates below a small cross, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The legend LES HUGUENOTS arcs along the upper periphery, with the historical date 1688 and the commemorative date 1988 flanking the central motif. Denomination inscriptions 1/10oz FYN GOUD and 1/10oz FINE GOLD appear in the lower field alongside the PROTEA series designation and engraver's initials TB.
