| Reverse description | Two naturalistic lion portraits — a maned male and a lioness — are depicted in close profile facing one another within the central field, set against a savannah landscape with grass in the lower field and a low cloud formation above. The curved legend 10 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE arcs across the upper periphery. The lower exergual band carries the denomination $100, flanked by the dates 1990 and 2000, separated by ornamental cross marks. The word ESSAI appears in small capitals in the lower left field, identifying this piece as a pattern or trial strike. |
