| Reverse description | The central field bears a full-colour photographic-style depiction of a hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) emerging from a blue river with its massive jaws open wide, rendered in vivid applied colour print against a background of water and sky. A small gold-plated sphere, representing the sun, is inset in the upper right portion of the field. The legend MAGNIFIQUE ANIMAUX AFRICAINS curves along the upper rim in raised Latin lettering, and the date 2012 appears to the right of the central design. The coin's milled border frames a beaded inner circle enclosing the coloured composition. |
