The territory name 'SEYCHELLES' arcs across the upper field, while the date '1939' is positioned along the lower periphery beneath the cartouche.

The 1939 date places this issue at the very start of World War II, when silver coinage across British colonial territories was already under pressure from wartime metal demands. Seychelles, administered from Mahé as a Crown Colony, had a circulation base of only a few thousand residents — mintages for these issues were correspondingly small, and attrition through loss in the island environment was high.
The .500 fineness reflects Britain's broader interwar reduction of silver content in colonial coinage, a policy that had been rolling through the empire since the early 1920s.
