| Obverse description | Central device depicting the emblem of the London Missionary Society: a dove in flight carrying an olive branch in its beak, rendered in low relief against an unadorned field. The design is restrained and emblematic in character, consistent with the missionary origin of the issue. No legend or inscription appears on this face. |
