Reverse description A highly detailed, ultra-high relief frontal portrait of a Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug) fills the entire field, rendered with exceptional feather texture radiating outward from the centrally positioned hooked beak. The falcon's eyes are inset with genuine faceted black gemstones, lending a striking three-dimensional and naturalistic quality to the design. The Latin legend FALCO CHERRUG is inscribed in small capitals along the upper rim. The inscription WILDLIFE PROTECTION 2016 curves along the lower rim, completing the commemorative theme. The antique finish enhances the sculptural depth and tonal contrast of the composition.
