| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Suriname occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into two quarters featuring a sailing ship and a palm tree, supported by two indigenous figures and surmounted by a five-pointed star. The arms are encircled by a decorative wreath composed of red palulu flowers (Heliconia bihai), a native Surinamese plant. The circular legend SURINAME appears along the lower periphery, while the motto JUSTITIA PIETAS FIDES — meaning Justice, Piety, and Faith — is inscribed around the upper arc. The overall composition is rendered in a formal heraldic style consistent with mid-twentieth-century Dutch colonial coinage. |
