| Reverse description | A naturalistically rendered Asian elephant is depicted in left-facing profile, standing on a ground line with sparse vegetation rendered beneath its feet, occupying the central field within a raised linear circle. The animal is shown with prominent tusks, large ears, and finely detailed musculature, conveying a sense of solidity and heraldic dignity. Below the ground line, in the exergue, the date '1802' is inscribed in large, bold Roman numerals. The entire composition is enclosed by an outer border of continuous raised circular pellets matching the obverse. |
