| Reverse description | A naturalistically rendered scene depicts a large adult hippopotamus partially submerged in water with its mouth wide open, facing left, while a smaller calf rests beside it in the foreground, both set against a landscape background of reeds and distant hills. The composition conveys a sense of maternal protection and wildlife conservation. The curved legend FAUNA EM PERIGO arcs along the upper periphery, identifying the endangered fauna series. The denomination 50000 PESOS appears in bold raised lettering along the lower rim. The proof finish highlights the fine sculptural detail of the animals and their aquatic environment. |
