Descrizione del rovescio	A bold six-pointed star (hexagram), formed by two interlocking equilateral triangles, dominates the central field and surrounds the circular hole at its centre. The peripheral legend 'NIGERIA · BRITISH WEST AFRICA' arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while the date '1911', flanked by two raised dots, is positioned in the lower exergual area beneath the star. The overall design is geometric and striking, reflecting the distinctive holed coinage tradition adopted for the West African currency area.
