| Reverse description | Dynamic proof composition depicting the boy Mowgli swinging from a jungle branch while confronting Kaa, the great python from Rudyard Kipling's 'The Jungle Book'. Kaa's massive, coiled body dominates the upper portion of the field, with the serpent's head lunging toward the leaping Mowgli in the right-centre of the design. Lush tropical foliage and tree limbs frame the entire scene, rendered in high sculptural relief against a polished mirror field to create a dramatic contrast of frosted and reflective surfaces. The inscription 'MOWGLI AND KAA' is positioned in the lower field in bold sans-serif lettering, with a small decorative mint mark visible to the lower left. |
