| Reverse description | A highly detailed and naturalistic depiction of the Lady's Slipper Orchid (Cypripedium calceolus) dominates the reverse field, with a large fully open bloom rendered in vivid polychrome enamel coloring to the right, showcasing its characteristic yellow pouch-shaped labellum and reddish-brown twisted petals against green sepals. To the left, additional uncolored engraved orchid plants in various stages of bloom provide botanical context in delicate relief. The WWF panda logo within a rectangular frame is positioned in the upper left field. The scientific name CYPRIPEDIUM CALCEOLUS arcs along the upper legend, and the date 2016 appears in the lower exergue. |
