| Reverse description | The reverse presents a naturalistic composition centered on a large, finely detailed swallowtail butterfly rendered with intricate wing venation, dominating the central field. A smaller butterfly is depicted in the upper left, while tropical flowers and foliage are distributed across the field, evoking the natural flora of Jamaica. The date 1979 is inscribed in the lower exergual area in a plain serif font. The overall design is executed in high relief against a polished proof field, with no encircling legend, allowing the botanical and entomological motifs to fill the composition. |
