| Reverse description | Three African Cape buffalo are depicted in the central field, each rendered in fine detail at varying distances to suggest depth and movement across the veld; the animals face different directions, conveying a sense of a living herd in its natural habitat. The same bold geometric faceted background pattern as the obverse frames the wildlife scene throughout the field. The legend NATURA arches prominently along the upper rim in large stylised letters that incorporate the geometric motif. The denomination and fineness inscription 1/2 OZ Au 999.9 appears in the lower exergue, and the engraver's initials SE are visible in the lower left field. |
