| Obverse description | A detailed engraving of a solitary coconut palm tree set on a rocky shoreline dominates the central field, with ocean and distant reef rendered in the background. The island name legend 'KEELING- COCOS Is' appears in two lines to the right of the palm, while the date '1968' is inscribed along the lower rim. The entire design is impressed in dark ink on aqua-coloured plastic, characteristic of the Clunies-Ross token coinage issued for plantation use. |
