Reverse description A highly detailed, full-colour printed depiction of Synchiropus splendidus (the mandarinfish) occupies the central field, rendered with vivid hues of red, purple, orange, and blue that highlight the species' distinctive psychedelic patterning. The fish is shown in lateral profile, its elaborate finnage fully extended, set against an engraved background of coral reef elements, sea anemones, and circular wave motifs. The series title SEA'S AMAZING WILDLIFE arcs along the upper legend, while the denomination 100 FRANCS is inscribed along the lower border. The scientific name SYNCHIROPUS SPLENDIDUS appears vertically along the left inner field. The design is framed by the same decorative dash-and-dot border as the obverse.
