The legend REPUBLIC OF SEYCHELLES curves along the upper arc of the brass-plated outer ring, with the date of issue appearing at the bottom. The overall design is rendered in high relief with fine engraving detail throughout the central device. |

The Central Bank of Seychelles introduced bimetallic coinage relatively late compared to regional peers, with this denomination entering circulation as part of a broader modernization push intended to reduce the cost and frequency of note replacement in the humid island climate, where paper currency deteriorates rapidly.
