| 背面描述 | A finely rendered full-body portrait of a Margay (Leopardus wiedii) occupies the central field, depicted standing in profile facing right with its head turned to confront the viewer, its spotted coat rendered in detailed relief. The animal's long tail curves downward behind its hind quarters. The date '1983' is inscribed in large numerals along the lower field. A beaded border encircles the design, consistent with the obverse treatment. |

Belize issued a series of gold wildlife coins in the early 1980s as part of a broader push by small Caribbean and Central American nations to generate hard currency through collector markets rather than circulation. The margay, a nocturnal spotted cat native to Belizean rainforest, was a deliberate choice — the WWF had flagged the species as under pressure from the pelt trade, and conservation-themed coinage carried premium appeal among European and North American buyers at the time.
The .500 fineness is notably low for a gold collector issue of this period, a cost-driven decision that kept the gold content just above the threshold buyers expected.
