| Obverse description | The post-1994 South African coat of arms occupies the central field, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. The shield is supported by a lion to the left and an oryx to the right, with a secretary bird displayed above the crest. A scroll at the base bears the motto UNITY. The bilingual legend UMZANTSI AFRIKA / SOUTH AFRICA arcs across the upper field, while the date 2000 appears at the bottom and the engraver's initials ALS are inscribed at lower left. |

| Reverse description | Three figures in traditional Xhosa dress are depicted in an intimate genre scene within the central field: a standing youth to the left leans forward with a stick, a smiling child reclines in the centre foreground, and a seated elder woman wearing a headwrap occupies the right. A decorative Xhosa beadwork pattern rendered in raised dots frames the lower portion of the field. The denomination R1 appears prominently at the top of the field, with the fineness and weight notation 1/10 OZ Au 999.9 inscribed in small lettering below it, and the initials PB visible at lower centre. |
