| Reverse description | Two African elephants are depicted in high relief at close proximity in the central field, with the larger animal shown in full left-facing profile and a second elephant rendered in a frontal three-quarter view with trunk curled downward, evoking an intimate naturalistic scene. A commemorative laurel-wreathed cartouche bearing the numeral 15, flanked by the years 2004 and 2018, marks the series' fifteenth anniversary and appears in the upper right field. The legend AFRICAN WILDLIFE arcs along the upper periphery, while ELEPHANT and the fineness specification 0.5 g Au 999.9 appear along the lower periphery. The entire design is framed by a beaded border. |
