A scroll below the shield bears the national motto in the legend: UNITY FREEDOM JUSTICE. The curved legend REPUBLIC OF SIERRA LEONE arcs along the upper periphery, and the date 2023 appears in the lower field. The Pobjoy Mint mark (PM) is present to the lower left of the arms. |

Sierra Leone's Big Five dollar series has been a vehicle for the Pobjoy Mint's proprietary Virenium alloy since the series launched — a nickel-brass compound developed by Pobjoy specifically to resist corrosion and maintain surface detail in tropical circulation conditions. Whether these coins ever circulated meaningfully in Sierra Leone is another question entirely; the series is aimed squarely at the collector market, with domestic monetary use essentially nominal.
The African buffalo is notoriously the most dangerous of the Big Five to hunters — responsible for more fatalities than lion or leopard.
