| Reverse description | A vivid full-color depiction of Lilium pardalinum, the Leopard Lily, occupying the lower two-thirds of the field, showing multiple blossoms with characteristic recurved orange-red petals spotted with dark markings and prominent protruding stamens with yellow-tipped anthers, rendered in polychrome enamel. In the background, rendered in uncolored relief, a mountainous landscape with billowing clouds and a stepped pyramid or tower structure appears to the right. The scientific name 'Lilium pardalinum' arcs along the upper field in raised lettering, while the silver purity hallmark 'Ag 925' appears in small characters at the lower right of the field. |
