| Obverse lettering | South Africa 2002 ALS |
| Reverse description | A powerful African elephant depicted in three-quarter right profile with its head raised and trunk curled upward in a display of strength, rendered in bold high relief against a mirror-polished field shaped to suggest the outline of the African continent. The surrounding border echoes the obverse design with engraved tropical foliage and leaves framing the composition. The denomination '50C' is incused in large block numerals in the lower central field, with the engraver's initials 'PB' appearing discretely at lower right. The overall composition is dynamic and naturalistic, consistent with the 'Strength of Africa' series theme. |
