| Reverse description | A central circular hole is surrounded by a Star of David motif — two interlaced equilateral triangles forming a Solomon's seal — rendered in clean, geometric relief within the inner field. The circular peripheral legend reads BRITISH WEST AFRICA · 1936 ·, with the date and issuer name separated by decorative stops. The spare, geometric composition is typical of holed colonial coinage of the period, designed for ease of recognition and durability in circulation. |
