| Reverse description | The Lion of Judah, the traditional imperial symbol of Ethiopia, depicted passant to the right in high relief, bearing the imperial crown upon its head and holding a processional staff or scepter topped with a cross in its raised right forepaw. Two six-pointed stars appear in the field flanking the lion, one to the upper left and one to the lower right. A circular Ge'ez legend fills the border within a beaded rim, and the denomination in Ge'ez numerals is inscribed in the exergue below a ground line. |
