| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large colour-printed depiction of a Symphysodon discus fish, rendered in rich warm tones of red and amber with intricate reticulated pattern detail, positioned centrally to the left of the field against a dark background. The series title Sea's amazing wildlife arcs across the upper field in a playful informal typeface. To the right, the scientific name SYMPHYSODON DISCUS is inscribed in two lines above the date 2014. The design is bordered by the same decorative snowflake motif ring as the obverse, creating a unified series aesthetic. |
