Reverse description A highly detailed, three-dimensional rendering of a black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis) in left-facing profile occupies the entirety of the reverse field, the coin's rhino-shaped flan precisely echoing the animal's silhouette. The rhinoceros is depicted walking, with naturalistic surface texture conveying the characteristic thick, heavily folded hide, musculature, and prominent double horn. The deeply sculpted high-relief engraving contrasts a frosted matte body finish against polished horn and facial details, exemplifying modern numismatic sculptural craft. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse, the design relying entirely on the sculptural portraiture of the subject. The shaped flan's contour follows the outline of the animal, creating a seamless unity between the coin's form and its design.
