Reverse description Two giraffes depicted in full stride, moving to the right across a suggested savannah ground line, rendered with intricate patterned relief evoking the animals' reticulated markings. The Swahili denomination legend SHILINGI ISHIRINI NA TANO curves around the upper and right periphery of the field, while the numeral 25 flanked by two raised dots appears in the lower exergual area. The deeply polished proof fields provide a striking contrast to the frosted animal and typographic devices, underlining the coin's status as a prestige conservation issue.
