| Obverse description | A highly detailed, close-up portrait of an African elephant (Loxodonta africana) facing directly toward the viewer, rendered in fine relief with exceptional textural detail across the skin, tusks, and ears. The imposing bust fills the field, with the animal's large ears flared and prominent ivory tusks curving downward on either side of the trunk. The South African Coat of Arms appears within a circular cartouche at the lower centre, flanked by the arcing legends 'SOUTH AFRICA' to the left and 'BIG FIVE 2020' to the right, separated by the shield device. The engraver's initials 'PB' appear discretely within the design. |
