| Reverse description | A highly detailed relief depiction of a lionfish (Pterois sp.) occupies the central field, its characteristic elongated venomous dorsal spines and broad pectoral fins rendered with naturalistic precision. The fish is shown in profile facing right, positioned adjacent to a textured coral reef formation along the right side of the field. Small fish and bubbles are suggested in the upper background, evoking an underwater marine environment. The legend MARINE LIFE PROTECTION arcs along the upper field in raised Latin lettering. The design is enclosed by a beaded inner border. |
