| Reverse description | Three Homo erectus figures are depicted in a dynamic sculptural composition gathered around a central fire, symbolising one of mankind's earliest technological milestones. A standing figure dominates the centre, arms outstretched, while two crouching figures flank the flames at lower left and right. The arc legend EVOLUTION OF MANKIND runs along the upper periphery, with USE OF FIRE inscribed in the mid-field to the right. In the exergue, HOMO ERECTUS 1,000,000 YEARS is inscribed on a raised panel, and AU. 1/25 OZ. CROWN appears along the lower border. |
