She holds a flowing drapery in her left hand and is depicted in classical robes, the design executed by George Kruger Gray. The bilingual legend SOUTH AFRICA and ZUID-AFRIKA arcs across the upper field, flanking the date, while the denomination 1 SHILLING 1 appears along the lower periphery. A beaded border frames the entire composition, and the designer's initials KG are present in the field.
