Reverse description A finely detailed effigy of a Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) is depicted in profile, perched upon a rugged branch that extends diagonally across the lower field. The bird is rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail, showing characteristic barred plumage on the breast and finely engraved feathering on the wings and tail. The falcon's head is turned to face left, conveying alertness. The legend 'FAUNA IBERICA EN EXTINCION' curves along the left and upper rim in stylised lettering, with 'Halcon Peregrino' inscribed along the right rim. The date '2004' appears in the lower right field beneath a small mint mark.
