| Reverse description | The reverse features a large-format holographic appliqué occupying the entire field, depicting a peacock displayed in full train, its elaborate tail feathers fanned symmetrically and rendered in exceptional detail with characteristic ocellated eye markings. The iridescent hologram produces a shifting spectrum of rainbow colours across the feathers as the viewing angle changes, highlighting the naturalistic beauty of the subject. No inscriptions or legends appear on the reverse, the holographic image filling the coin's surface to the rim. |
