| Reverse description | A traditional Gambian sailing vessel, rendered in fine detail with billowing sails and rigging, occupying the centre and left of the field, depicted underway on stylised waves. The denomination numeral '1' appears to the right of the vessel in the field, and the legend 'PENNY' curves along the upper periphery. The design was engraved by Michael Rizzello and evokes the maritime heritage of the River Gambia. |
