| 裏面の説明 | Central field presents a finely detailed high-relief effigy of an adult Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) advancing toward the viewer in a three-quarter frontal stance, set within a naturalistic jungle landscape featuring tropical foliage and palm fronds framing the composition on both sides. The elephant's characteristic domed head, small ears, and tusks are rendered with meticulous detail. The legend ASIAN ELEPHANT curves along the upper periphery, while the inscription 1 OZ 999 FINE SILVER is positioned in the lower exergual area, confirming the coin's bullion specifications. |

Cambodia's ongoing wildlife series has drawn collector attention largely because the National Bank has kept mintages tight — typically under 2,000 pieces per release — in contrast to the bloated runs that undermine similar programs elsewhere. The Asian elephant holds particular weight in Khmer culture, historically central to royal ceremony and warfare; war elephants were a documented feature of the Khmer Empire's armies as depicted at Angkor Wat, and the animal appeared on pre-revolutionary Cambodian coinage before the Khmer Rouge dismantled the country's monetary system entirely in 1975.
The KM#168.1 variant designation suggests a die or finish distinction from the base type — likely a privy mark or surface treatment difference, though Cambodia's catalog documentation on sub-varieties remains inconsistently maintained.
