| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed scene of a bull African elephant advancing toward the viewer in three-quarter profile, its trunk raised and tusks prominent, set amid tall grasses in the foreground. In the background, a palm tree and a traditional thatched hut are visible beneath a large, stylised sun or moon disk rising on the horizon, evoking an African savannah landscape. The legend AFRICAN WILDLIFE arcs across the upper field in bold Latin capitals, with ELEPHANT inscribed along the lower left periphery. The purity and weight designation 1/10 oz Au 999.9 appears along the lower right, with decorative dot separators punctuating the border inscription. The deeply mirrored field contrasts with the frosted relief of the design, characteristic of high-quality bullion proof coinage. |
