| Obverse description | Central field features a detailed high-relief depiction of the Angkor Wat temple complex, rendered with fine architectural precision showing the iconic five prasat towers rising above tiered galleries, with stylized palm trees in the middle ground. The legend KINGDOM OF CAMBODIA arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised Latin lettering. The date 2025 and the denomination 3,000 RIELS are inscribed in two lines across the lower field. The overall composition presents a mirror-polished field contrasting with the finely struck architectural relief. |

| Additional information |
Cambodia's Indochinese tiger (Panthera tigris corbetti) was declared functionally extinct in the country around 2007, when camera trap surveys in the Cardamom Mountains and Eastern Plains failed to produce a single confirmed image. The last credible wild sighting predates that assessment by several years. This issue belongs to a broader series of wildlife conservation commemoratives produced under the Royal Government of Cambodia, typically struck by European contract mints for collector export rather than domestic circulation.
