| Reverse description | The reverse displays a finely detailed botanical composition depicting a cluster of millet or rice plants (Pennisetum glaucum), rendered with naturalistic precision, with heavily laden grain heads drooping gracefully from tall stalks that rise from a dense base. The engraving, signed 'COPPIN' at the left field, showcases intricate relief work capturing individual seed heads and narrow leaves. The same characteristic zigzag sawtooth decorative border as seen on the obverse encircles the design along the inner rim. The plain field provides an uncluttered background that accentuates the agricultural motif, reflecting Mali's agrarian economy. No inscriptions or legends appear on this face. |
