| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, high-relief depiction of a rhinoceros beetle (subfamily Dynastinae) shown in profile, facing right, as it grips the surface of a textured tree bark rendered in fine detail across the lower field. The beetle's distinctive cephalic and thoracic horns are prominently sculpted, with meticulous engraving of the elytra, segmented legs, and facial features conveying a naturalistic, almost three-dimensional quality. The antique silver finish enhances the depth and texture of the composition. The Latin taxonomic name 'DYNASTINAE' is inscribed in a gentle arc along the upper portion of the field. |
