| Reverse description | A finely detailed composition depicting two lions dominates the field: a large male lion in profile facing right with a full flowing mane rendered in high relief occupies the upper right, while a lioness or younger lion strides forward in three-quarter view at the lower left, with the species inscription LION appearing in the lower left field. The legend SERENGETI WILDLIFE arcs along the upper border, flanked by decorative geometric devices at both sides. The denomination 500 appears at the base of the central design, above the curved legend SHILINGI MIA TANO along the lower periphery, all within a beaded inner border. |
