| Reverse description | A finely detailed, naturalistic representation of a Mountain Gazelle (Gazella gazella) stands in profile facing right at the centre of the field, rendered in high relief with delicate surface modelling. A stylised acacia tree occupies the left background, and rocky outcroppings are scattered to the right, evoking the species' arid highland habitat. The upper periphery carries the Arabic legend الصندوق الدولي لحماية الحياة البرية والحفاظ على الطبيعة (World Wide Fund for Nature — Conserving Nature) arcing clockwise, with the Arabic date ١٩٩٧م and the Arabic name الغزال الجبلي (The Mountain Gazelle) inscribed to the left field. The lower legend reads THE MOUNTAIN GAZELLE in Latin above WWF CONSERVING NATURE 1997, the latter curving along the bottom rim. |
