| Reverse description | Central round hole surrounded by a prominent symmetrical ornamental device composed of interlaced and scrolled motifs in a Melanesian decorative style, occupying the majority of the field. The circular legend around the periphery reads 'TERRITORY OF NEW GUINEA' at the top and 'ONE PENNY' with the date at the bottom, all separated by raised dots. The designer's initials 'K' and 'G' appear to either side of the central ornament. A beaded border runs along the inner rim, consistent with the obverse treatment. |
