| Reverse description | Central design features a highly detailed depiction of a butterfly — characteristic of the Conservation series — perched above a cluster of stylised floral or fruiting plant heads, all rendered in fine relief. The legend 'MAURITIUS' arcs along the upper periphery, while '25 RUPEES' is inscribed along the lower periphery in two words. The composition emphasises the island's natural heritage in keeping with the FAO and Conservation coinage themes of the era. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
