| Reverse description | A boldly rendered frontal lion's head dominates the central field, depicted with open jaws, prominent fangs, and a full, finely detailed mane radiating outward. The circumferential legend 'FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF INDEPENDENCE' runs around the upper and lateral portions of the field. The dates '1961-1966' appear in large numerals along the lower field, commemorating five years of Sierra Leonean independence. A dentilated inner border encircles the design, consistent with the obverse treatment. |
