| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents an extraordinarily detailed ultra-high relief portrait of a Mongolian wolf (Canis lupus chanco) rendered in a dual-tone composition reminiscent of a yin-yang motif: the left half depicted in matte antique finish and the right half in a polished relief, together forming a single cohesive wolf's face occupying nearly the entire field. Individual strands of fur are engraved with exceptional precision, and the wolf's eyes are rendered with striking realism. The lower portion of the field transitions into a subtle circular medallion element, echoing the obverse cartouche design. No legends appear on this face, allowing the naturalistic wildlife imagery to dominate the composition entirely. |

Mongolia's "Mystic Wolf" belongs to a broader run of high-relief, antique-finished collector issues the Bank of Mongolia has commissioned since roughly 2010, largely through European minting intermediaries — in this case almost certainly the Czech Mint, which has handled several Wolf series coins for Ulaanbaatar. The wolf holds specific cultural weight in Mongolian tradition as a sacred ancestor figure in the Secret History of the Mongols, the 13th-century chronicle that traces Genghis Khan's lineage partly through a blue-grey wolf.
