| Reverse description | Two cotton plant branches with open bolls and foliage are depicted symmetrically in the field, one to the left and one to the right, their stems meeting at the lower centre. The fractional denomination '1/2' is prominently displayed in large numerals at the upper centre, between the two plants. The currency unit 'kobo' is inscribed in lower-case letters along the lower portion of the field, below the cotton stems. The overall design is simple and naturalistic, emphasising Nigeria's agricultural heritage. |
