Reverse description A detailed, partially colorized composition depicting three Altai tigers (Panthera tigris altaica): a large adult rendered in frosted silver relief rests atop a rocky outcrop in the upper field, while two colorized cubs with vivid orange, black, and white striped coats face the viewer in the lower foreground. The Latin legend 'PANTHERA TIGRIS ALTAICA' curves along the upper rim. The date '1996' is inscribed in the lower exergue. The contrast between the proof mirror fields and the sculpted, colorized animal figures creates a striking naturalistic effect.
