| Reverse description | Two Cape Sparrows (Passer melanurus) perched on a branch of an acacia tree, enclosed within a beaded circle. The bilingual legend reads SUID-AFRIKA to the left and SOUTH AFRICA to the right, with the date appearing above and the denomination 1/4D. below the central device. The engraver's initials K.G. appear in the field, attributing the design to George Kruger Gray. The composition reflects South Africa's characteristic use of indigenous wildlife and flora on its decimal and pre-decimal coinage. |
