| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed panoramic landscape scene evoking the |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park, dominated by two large quiver trees (Aloidendron dichotomum) with characteristically forked, succulent branches in the foreground, set against a rugged terrain of boulders, rocky outcrops, and distant mountains. Additional quiver trees and desert flora populate the middle and background, conveying the arid splendour of the Namib-Karoo ecosystem. A rectangular cartouche in the lower central field bears the bilingual inscription identifying the transfrontier park, with the engraver's initials MJS visible in the lower left field. |
