| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed, close-up frontal portrait of a long-eared hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus) dominates the entire field in high relief, rendered with exceptional naturalistic precision. The animal's characteristic radiating spines fan outward across the upper field, while its soft facial fur, prominent snout, and clawed forepaws are depicted with meticulous sculptural detail. Two inset Swarovski crystals represent the hedgehog's eyes, adding a distinctive three-dimensional quality to the design. The legend 'WILDLIFE PROTECTION' curves along the lower left periphery, with the date '2012' and the Latin binomial 'HEMIECHINUS AURITUS' completing the inscription along the lower right. The antique finish enhances the fine surface textures throughout the composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mongolia's long-eared hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus) inhabits the Gobi's semi-arid fringe, where it was historically trapped for use in traditional medicine — a practice significant enough that the species eventually warranted protected status under Mongolian law. This coin was issued as part of a broader series of Mongolian wildlife silver rounds aimed squarely at the international collector market, a revenue strategy the Bank of Mongolia pursued aggressively through the 2010s via partnerships with European coin distributors.
