| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatically detailed, large-scale depiction of a Cannabis sativa leaf rendered in vivid applied green color, dominating the entire field and occupying the majority of the coin's surface. The leaf is shown with finely engraved serrated leaflets radiating from a central stem, exhibiting meticulous botanical accuracy. The background field is filled with additional Cannabis foliage in antiqued silver relief, creating a layered, high-relief composition. The species name cannabis sativa is inscribed in flowing cursive script to the upper right of the field, with the date 2021 positioned below it in the same stylized lettering. |
