| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a finely detailed relief of a Tibetan blue bear (Ursus pruinosus) standing in full profile atop a naturalistic rocky outcrop, with tufts of grass rendered at its feet. The animal faces right, its textured fur rendered with careful engraving to convey the species' distinctive shaggy coat. The curved Latin legend 'URSUS PRUINOSUS' arcs along the upper periphery of the field. The date '2001' is inscribed in the lower exergue. |
