| Reverse description | A sable antelope (Hippotragus niger) stands in full profile facing left, set within a plain field. The species is rendered in fine naturalistic detail by engraver Paul Vincze, with the animal's distinctive curved horns clearly depicted. The legend RHODESIA AND NYASALAND arcs above the central device, while the date and denomination ONE SHILLING appear below, flanking the engraver's initials P.V. A beaded border frames the entire composition. |
