10 Kwacha Pygmy Hippopotamus

正面描述	The central field features the national coat of arms of Malawi in high relief, flanked by its two heraldic supporters: a lion to the left and a leopard to the right, both rampant. The shield displays the rising sun, wavy bars representing Lake Malawi, and a lion passant. Above the shield, an African fish eagle with spread wings serves as the crest, while below, a scroll bears the national motto UNITY AND FREEDOM. The date 2005 is divided by the arms, with '20' to the left and '05' to the right. The circumferential legend REPUBLIC OF MALAWI arcs along the upper rim, and the denomination 10 KWACHA appears along the lower rim.

背面描述	A naturalistic depiction of a pygmy hippopotamus (Choeropsis liberiensis) in right-facing profile occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with fine detail on its compact, rounded body and short legs. The animal is shown walking through a ground covering of grass and low vegetation, with tufts of foliage visible to the left and right flanks. The polished field provides a stark contrast to the relief of the subject, emphasising the coin's commemorative character. The curved legend ENDANGERED WILDLIFE arcs along the upper portion of the rim in bold Latin capitals.
