| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-color, high-relief depiction of Po, the giant panda protagonist of the DreamWorks animated franchise Kung Fu Panda, rendered as a close-up portrait of his smiling face with characteristic black eye patches, white fur, and expressive green eyes. The image is applied in vivid color printing across the entire surface of the panda-head-shaped flan, with the silver border of the planchet remaining visible around the perimeter. The lifelike, three-dimensional rendering captures the character's jovial and friendly expression in fine detail. No additional legends or inscriptions appear on this face. |
