| Reverse description | A highly detailed, colourised depiction of a young harp seal pup resting atop an Arctic ice floe, its large dark eyes and whiskered muzzle rendered with naturalistic precision, facing the viewer in three-quarter perspective. Ice formations rise behind the animal in the middle ground, set against a dark field evoking a polar night sky. Two stylised snowflake ornaments flank the curved legend HARP SEAL at the upper periphery. The Perth Mint mintmark P appears to the right of the central design, while the inscription 1/2oz 9999 Ag is incused along the lower exergue, denoting the silver content and fineness. |
