| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid full-colour enamel depiction of a Red Lionfish (Pterois volitans) rendered in naturalistic detail, shown in profile swimming to the left amid a vibrant coral reef environment. The fish is portrayed with its characteristic fan-like pectoral fins and distinctive striped, venomous dorsal spines prominently displayed in shades of orange, brown, and teal. A coral formation in purple and pink tones occupies the right field, while schools of small fish are visible in the deep blue background. The legend MARINE LIFE PROTECTION arcs along the upper border in raised Latin lettering. The entire design is enclosed within an inner beaded border. |
