| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the full figure of a velociraptor hatchling emerging dynamically from a cracked egg, rendered in exceptional sculptural high relief against the egg-shaped flan. The juvenile dinosaur is shown with its head raised, jaws slightly parted, and one foreleg with prominent curved claws thrust forward through the broken shell. The surface of the egg is naturalistically textured with a network of cracks radiating from the point of emergence, conveying the energy of hatching. The overall composition is strikingly three-dimensional, with the hatchling's body, limbs, and tail filling the interior of the egg in an immersive, sculptural treatment characteristic of modern collector coinage. |
