| Beschrijving voorzijde | A large, finely detailed frontal portrait of a lion occupies the central field, rendered with intricate engraving to convey the texture of the mane. A decorative ribbon scroll below the lion bears the national motto UNITÉ TRAVAIL PROGRÈS. The circular legend •REPUBLIQUE DU BURUNDI• arcs along the upper periphery, flanked on both sides by a border of stylised snowflake or star ornaments. The denomination ~5000 Francs~ 1 Oz Silver~ is inscribed along the lower field, with a small shield emblem positioned centrally beneath the scroll. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a full-colour printed depiction of a Clown Triggerfish (Balistoides conspicillum) swimming in a stylised underwater scene, with coral formations visible along the lower field. The fish is rendered with vivid naturalistic colouring, displaying its characteristic large white spots on the lower body and yellow-green patterning on the dorsal area against a dark background. The series title 'Sea's amazing wildlife' is inscribed in a decorative script across the upper field, with the issue date 2014 below it. The species name 'Clown Tigger Fish' appears as a caption to the lower left of the fish. The coin border is decorated with a ring of stylised floral or snowflake ornaments consistent with the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Burundi's mid-2010s novelty fish series was part of a broader wave of African collector coinage produced almost entirely for the European and Asian gift market — Burundi itself has no coastline and no cultural connection to the species depicted. The issuing authority in these series is typically nominal, with production and distribution handled entirely by private minting houses operating under licensing arrangements.
Silver-plated copper-nickel was the standard substrate for this market tier, keeping unit costs low enough for mass hobby retail while maintaining the appearance of a precious-metal issue.
