| Reverse description | A finely detailed Mauritius Kestrel (Falco punctatus) rendered in dynamic mid-flight posture, wings fully spread and talons extended downward, occupying the central field. The engraving by Christopher Ironside captures the plumage and musculature of this endangered endemic raptor with naturalistic precision. The country name MAURITIUS arcs along the upper periphery as the primary legend, while the denomination 50 RUPEES curves along the lower periphery. A beaded border encircles the entire design. |
