Reverse description The crowned Lion of Judah passant, facing right, with a raised right forepaw resting on a staff bearing a cross-topped banner, rendered in bold relief at the centre of the field. The lion wears an imperial crown upon its head, symbolising the Solomonic dynasty. A Ge'ez legend arcs around the upper field within a beaded border, while the Latin denomination '1 DINAR' is inscribed in raised block letters along the lower exergue.
