| Reverse description | An intricate, symmetrical mandala-style design fills the entire reverse field, composed of overlapping foliate and geometric motifs including petals, kite-shaped lozenges, stepped facets, and beaded accents, all rendered in high relief with varying surface finishes to create depth and contrast. At the center, a cushion-cut Forevermark Black Label diamond is physically inlaid within a raised collet setting, its facets reflecting light across the polished field. The overall composition evokes the brilliance and precise cut of the diamond it frames, with each radiating element mirroring the stone's angular geometry. The engraver's initials 'CRR' appear discreetly in the lower right field. No inscriptions are present on the reverse aside from the engraver's mark. |

| Additional information |
Forevermark is a De Beers subsidiary that grades and inscribes diamonds it deems among the most carefully selected — fewer than 1% of the world's diamonds qualify under its criteria. This coin's "Black Label Cushion" designation refers to a specific De Beers cut grade within that program, meaning the coin's design specification was dictated as much by a diamond-industry marketing tier as by the mint itself. An unusual circumstance for a sovereign issuer.
