| Reverse description | A large African elephant cow is depicted in full relief, striding across a savanna landscape rendered with grasses and rocky outcroppings in the lower field. Radiating sunbeams emanate from the upper left, lending a dramatic, naturalistic atmosphere to the composition. Tree foliage is suggested at the upper right of the field. The legend 'SPIRIT OF AFRICA' is inscribed within a cartouche along the upper border, with the word 'OF' centered over a small solar disc motif. The overall design is executed in a bold, sculptural style characteristic of modern African wildlife commemorative issues. |
