| Reverse description | A finely detailed naturalistic depiction of the golden-rumped elephant shrew (Rhynchocyon chrysopygus) occupies the central field, shown in profile amid low scrub vegetation and rocks, conveying a sense of natural habitat. The legend LE MONDE ANIMAL EN PERIL arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, and the scientific name RHYNCHOCYON CHRYSOPYGUS is inscribed along the lower periphery. The date 2006 appears in the right field. The reverse is struck to proof quality with deeply mirrored fields and sharply frosted wildlife relief. |
