| 正面铭文 | · ZAMBIA · 1966 |
| 背面描述 | Plain bronze field centred by a circular perforation, with the denomination ONE PENNY inscribed in large bold serif capital letters arcing around the upper portion of the coin. Below the central hole, the monetary value expressed in traditional pre-decimal notation, 1d., is displayed in large numerals and lettering. Two small five-pointed stars flank the lower legend as decorative stops. The reverse design is wholly typographic, consistent with the utilitarian aesthetic of the holed penny series issued during Zambia's transitional pound currency period. |

Zambia's first decimal coinage, issued in 1966, replaced the Rhodesia and Nyasaland series following independence in 1964 and the country's formal break from British colonial monetary arrangements. The two-year gap between independence and the new coinage reflects the logistical and political difficulty of establishing a national currency infrastructure from scratch — the kwacha and ngwee system required entirely new dies, distribution networks, and public education campaigns before it could launch.
