| Reverse description | The reverse displays an intensely detailed, ultra-high relief close-up portrait of a majestic eagle rendered in black proof finish, filling the entire coin field. The eagle's head occupies the right portion of the design, depicted in sharp profile with a piercing eye rendered in high contrast and a powerful hooked beak shown open. To the left, the spread wing feathers of the same eagle are visible in the background, rendered with fine engraving that captures individual feather detail across a deeply shadowed field. The composition is entirely imagistic with no legend or inscription, emphasizing the raw naturalistic power of the bird in a contemporary artistic style. |

| Additional information |
Mongolia's large-format silver issues from this period were produced primarily for the international collector market, with the Bank of Mongolia contracting European mints — most frequently the Münze Österreich and B.H. Mayer's — to strike pieces that would never see domestic circulation. The 1000 Tögrög denomination sits well above any practical transactional value inside Mongolia, where the tugrik's purchasing power made such a face value largely nominal.
