| Reverse description | A finely detailed effigy of a puffback bird (Dryoscopus cubla) perched on a leafy branch occupies the centre of the field, rendered in high relief with careful attention to plumage and naturalistic form. The numeral '1000' appears in the upper field above the bird, while the word 'DALASIS' is inscribed vertically along the left periphery. A spray of foliage extends to the lower right, complementing the ornithological motif and completing the design. |
