Beschrijving voorzijde At center, a large numeral '1' dominates the field, with the reduced Kenyan coat of arms — depicting two lions rampant flanking a traditional shield — positioned below it, the date divided to either side of the arms. The circular legend 'REPUBLIC OF KENYA' arcs across the upper periphery, while 'ONE SHILLING' curves along the lower border, all rendered in raised Latin lettering.

Aanvullende informatie

Kenya redenominated and restructured its coinage series in the early 1990s, and this brass-plated steel shilling replaced an earlier nickel-clad steel type as the Central Bank moved to reduce production costs. The shift to plated steel was part of a broader trend across sub-Saharan Africa during this period, driven by rising base metal prices and pressure on foreign reserves.

Plated steel issues from Kenya circulated hard and are frequently found with edge nicks exposing the steel core beneath the brass.
