Reverse description Central device features a finely detailed high-relief depiction of a snow leopard (Panthera uncia) in a stalking posture, facing left with its long, heavy tail raised above its back, set upon a rocky mountainous terrain with sparse vegetation in the lower field. The legend ENDANGERED WILDLIFE arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, and the denomination 300 NGULTRUM is inscribed in the lower field below the principal device. The mirror-like proof field provides strong contrast to the frosted relief of the animal, emphasizing the naturalistic engraving.
