| Reverse description | A hippopotamus is depicted in three-quarter view, partially submerged in a river, its stocky body and short legs rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished field. Stylized water waves and ripples surround the animal in the lower portion of the coin, while aquatic vegetation and reeds rise behind it in the middle ground. A stylized sun rises on the horizon in the upper field, with cloud-like formations stretching across the sky. The curved legend ENDANGERED WILDLIFE arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, emphasizing the conservation theme of the issue. |
