| Reverse description | Three Cape Buffalo are depicted in the central field against a bold geometric background of faceted diamond forms incorporating finely engraved foliate motifs, characteristic of the Natura series' artistic style. A standing adult bull occupies the left, a recumbent bull the centre foreground, and a walking animal the right, together conveying naturalistic movement and herd behaviour. The series name NATURA arcs prominently along the upper border in large open letters integrated into the geometric design. Along the lower border, the denomination and fineness legend 1/4 OZ Au 999.9 is inscribed, with the engraver's initials AM (Aldrid Minnie) to the lower right of the field. |
