Reverse description The reverse presents a highly detailed, dramatic depiction of an extinct cave bear (Ursus spelaeus), rendered in high relief. The bear's head and shoulders dominate the right portion of the field, mouth agape to reveal prominent canine teeth in a powerful roaring pose. To the left, a skeletal forepaw emerges from a rocky cave background, evoking the creature's prehistoric existence. The year '2023' appears in the left mid-field, while the arc legend 'PREDATORS - URSUS SPELAEUS - EXTINCT' curves along the upper periphery. The weight and fineness inscription '1/2 G .9999 FINEST GOLD' is engraved along the lower exergue.
