Reverse description The reverse depicts a highly detailed engraving of an osprey (Pandion haliaetus) in dynamic flight, shown from a frontal perspective with wings fully spread as it descends toward a water surface, clutching a fish in its talons. A naturalistic landscape of water and rocky outcroppings occupies the lower portion of the field, rendered in finely detailed relief. The curved Latin legend 'ENDANGERED WILD LIFE PANDION HALIAETUS' arcs along the upper periphery of the coin. The year of issue '2004' is inscribed at the bottom of the field. The combination of frosted relief and mirror fields gives the design a strong proof-like contrast.
