Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief portrait of a Mongolian saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica mongolica), depicted in a three-quarter frontal view with its characteristic bulbous nose and prominently ridged, lyre-shaped horns occupying the upper right field. The Latin legend 'SAIGA TATARICA MONGOLICA' arcs along the upper border, while a vertical Traditional Mongolian script inscription appears to the left of the animal's head. The date '2011' is incused in the lower exergue. The naturalistic rendering of the animal's fur and facial features demonstrates a high standard of engraving typical of modern proof issues.
