Reverse description A majestic lion (Panthera leo) is depicted standing in three-quarter frontal view, turned slightly to the left, its tail curling upward behind its hindquarters. The animal stands upon a rocky outcrop amid stylized vegetation, rendered with fine detail in the mane and musculature. The curved legend REPUBLIQUE DU NIGER arcs along the upper periphery of the field. The overall composition is bold and naturalistic, executed in high relief on a proof surface.
