| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents an extraordinarily detailed, ultra-high relief depiction of a saker falcon (Falco cherrug), rendered in a dramatic close-up composition occupying virtually the entire field. The bird's frontal portrait dominates the left portion of the design, showcasing finely engraved feather textures across the crown, face, and breast, with deeply struck, naturalistic eyes conveying remarkable intensity. To the right, a secondary profile view of the falcon's head emerges from an intricately textured rocky or lichen-covered background, executed in a contrasting low-relief pattern that fills the upper right quadrant. The lower right field shows the falcon's taloned foot gripping a gnarled branch, rendered with exceptional sculptural precision. The overall design exemplifies CIT's 'Smartminting' ultra-high relief technology, producing a coin of striking artistic and numismatic quality. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mongolia's saker falcon holds legal protection under domestic law and is listed on CITES Appendix II, yet illegal trapping for the Gulf falconry market remains one of the country's most persistent wildlife crime problems — estimates have put annual illegal exports in the thousands of birds. The coin was issued under a broader Mongol Bank conservation series that began gaining international traction in the early 2010s, timed partly to coincide with growing diplomatic pressure on transit countries facilitating the trade.
KM#454 is a one-troy-ounce fine gold piece, placing it squarely in the investor-bullion tier despite its conservation framing.
