| Reverse description | A powerfully rendered African lion is depicted in close-up frontal view, crouching low and stalking forward through savannah grass rendered in silver against a deeply mirrored black field. The lion's body and head are selectively gold-plated, creating a striking two-tone contrast with the unplated silver grass in the lower field and border areas. The animal's intense forward gaze and musculature are rendered with exceptional engraving detail. The legend AFRICAN LION is inscribed vertically along the right inner border of the coin. |
