| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a crowned cartouche or shield device surmounted by a royal crown, within which the denomination is inscribed in two lines. The legend CEYLON arcs above the crown, while CURRENCY arcs along the lower border. The motto DIEU ET MON DROIT appears below the central device, referencing the British royal motto. The overall design reflects the British colonial authority over Ceylon, executed in a neoclassical engraving style consistent with early 19th-century Royal Mint practice. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A naturalistically rendered elephant, facing left, occupies the central field, depicted in profile with prominent tusks and raised trunk details in low relief. The animal stands on a plain ground line, conveying the indigenous fauna of Ceylon as a symbol of the island's identity. The date 1812 is inscribed in the exergue below the ground line. The border is formed by a milled or beaded rim, consistent with contemporary British colonial coinage patterns. |
