| Obverse description | The obverse presents a finely detailed portrait bust of a greater kudu bull in right profile, its magnificent spiralling horns rising dramatically above the design. The animal's head and neck emerge from within a large circular arc that divides the field, evoking a natural setting. The surrounding border is richly ornamented with an intricate bas-relief pattern of acacia branches and foliage, integrating the legend "SOUTH AFRICA" along the left periphery in stylised lettering woven through the vegetation. The date "1999" appears prominently at the upper centre of the design, flanked by decorative elements, while the engraver's initials "ALS" are incused in the lower field beneath the kudu's portrait. |
