| Obverse description | A boldly rendered lion in a crouching, prowling posture occupies the central field, depicted with a highly detailed mane and raised hindquarters, set upon a rocky ground line. The design is engraved in high relief in the style of Conrad Heinrich Küchler of the Soho Mint. The peripheral legend reads SIERRA LEONE COMPANY arching above, with AFRICA appearing in the lower exergual area. The overall composition conveys the heraldic character associated with the Sierra Leone Company's colonial coinage of the late eighteenth century. |
