| Reverse description | A highly detailed relief portrayal of the extinct prehistoric pinniped Puijila darwini occupies the central field, depicted in a naturalistic pose with its head raised and webbed forelimb prominently extended toward the viewer, revealing detailed skeletal-like clawed digits. The background features an intricate scene of aquatic vegetation and rocky substrate, rendered in fine bas-relief. The upper legend PREDATORS · PUIJILA DARWINI arcs within a recessed circular panel, with the word EXTINCT inscribed on a banner below it. The date 2021 appears to the left of the animal's head, and the inscription .999 FINE SILVER 1 OZ is engraved along the lower exergue. |
