Reverse description A finely detailed high-relief depiction of Pennant's red colobus monkey (Procolobus pennantii) occupies the central field, shown clinging to and gripping a diagonal branch with both hands and feet, its long tail extending to the lower left. The primate's distinctive tufted crown and facial features are rendered with naturalistic precision against a mirror-polished field. The legend LE MONDE ANIMAL EN PERIL curves along the upper periphery, while the binomial scientific name PROCOLOBUS PENNANTII is inscribed in bold lettering along the lower periphery. The date 2007 appears in the right field.
