| Reverse description | The reverse features an ultra-high relief dual portrait of a polar bear (Ursus maritimus), depicted twice: on the left, a photorealistic close-up of the bear's head in three-quarter view with mouth open, teeth and tongue visible, conveying raw power; on the right, a more stylized, sculptural rendition of the same bear's face rendered in deeply carved relief with intricate fur detailing. The two renditions merge seamlessly across the field, creating a striking artistic duality between realism and abstraction. The legend 'KING OF THE NORTH' appears in the lower right field in bold serif lettering. |
