| Obverse description | A large, finely detailed depiction of the King Protea (Protea cynaroides), South Africa's national flower, occupies the central field. The bloom is rendered in high relief with intricate petal and bract detail radiating from a domed centre. The legend SOUTH AFRICA arcs above in bold capital letters, while the date 2008 appears in the lower field beneath the flower. The engraver's initials ALS are inscribed discreetly below the bloom. |
