| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed composition celebrating the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve. Dominating the upper right is a finely engraved leaping leopard in profile, rendered with precise spotted patterning. The denomination 'R2' is prominently inscribed in large characters across the upper field, with the UNESCO logo and inscription to the left. The legend 'KOGELBERG biosphere reserve' is engraved centrally, beneath which the fineness specification '1/4 oz Au 999.9' appears. The lower field features a naturalistic vignette depicting indigenous fynbos flora in the foreground, a mountain landscape to the left, and a glass conservatory structure to the right, with the engraver's initials 'VLC' and 'MJS' incorporated into the design. |
