| Reverse description | Two secretary birds (Sagittarius serpentarius) are depicted naturalistically at their nest, rendered in fine relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The left bird is shown in a dynamic landing posture with wings fully spread, while the right bird stands upright at the edge of the large stick nest, its distinctive crest feathers clearly delineated. Two small chicks are visible within the nest below the adult birds. The denomination 'R 2' is inscribed in large characters in the upper right field. The engraver's initials 'CM' appear at lower left. |
