Reverse description A finely detailed full-body depiction of a Marco Polo sheep (Ovis ammon polii) stands in left profile at the centre of the field, rendered with naturalistic musculature and prominent curved horns sweeping back and upward. Tufts of grass are engraved beneath the animal's hooves to suggest a natural habitat. The Pashto denomination legend 'لس زره' appears in Arabic script along the upper left field, with the numeral '١٠٠٠٠' to the right of the animal, and the word 'افغاني' inscribed in large Arabic characters along the lower periphery.
