| Reverse description | Central device depicts a tall palm tree rising from a grassy base, its fronds spreading broadly to either side, with the trunk bisecting the four-digit date 19 52 placed in the mid-field. The word TRIAL appears in small letters above the date to the right of the trunk. Decorative foliate scrollwork flanks the lower portion of the palm, framing the central composition within an inner beaded border. The upper peripheral legend reads BRITISH WEST AFRICA, while the denomination ONE SHILLING curves along the lower periphery. The entire design is enclosed within a toothed border. |
