| Reverse description | The reverse presents a colorized basketball rendered in vivid orange on a convex, textured playing-court surface, evoking the distinctive feel of the sport. Two basketball players are depicted in dynamic poses flanking the central ball, with additional basketballs serving as decorative framing elements around the composition. The design commemorates the 125th anniversary of the invention of basketball by Canadian-born Dr. James Naismith in 1891. The legend and commemorative dates are inscribed within the design field. |
