| Reverse description | A full-color representation of the Diaethria clymena butterfly — commonly known as the 88 butterfly for its distinctive wing pattern — is depicted at center, shown with wings spread to reveal vivid red upper wings and boldly patterned black-and-white lower wings bearing the characteristic numeral-like ocelli. The butterfly is framed within a convex magnifying lens rendered in relief silver, with its handle extending toward the lower right of the field. The surrounding field is rendered in full color, depicting lush tropical foliage in varying shades of green, with a large pink peony blossom in the lower right quadrant. The scientific name 'Diaethria clymena' is inscribed in italic lettering along the upper right portion of the field. |
