| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid full-color depiction of a Hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) swimming across the field, its intricately patterned carapace rendered in naturalistic shades of brown, amber, and olive through applied colorization. The background field features a lightly engraved relief suggesting a coral reef environment, with subtle organic textures evoking an underwater seascape. The curved legend 'ARRECIFE CORALINO' arcs prominently along the upper rim in raised capital letters. The date '2023' appears on the left side of the field, while the species' common and scientific names — 'Tortuga carey' and 'Eretmochelys imbricata' — are inscribed in italicized lettering along the lower portion of the field. |
