| Additional information |
The Bank of Somaliland issues coins for a territory that has operated as a self-declared independent republic since 1991, recognized by no sovereign state. Its coinage circulates domestically but holds no standing in international exchange markets. The Scorpio zodiac series to which this piece belongs was produced to attract the collector market rather than meet any domestic monetary need.
The "empty leaves" designation distinguishes this die variety from examples struck with filled leaf detail — a small but catalogued difference that affects secondary market pricing within the series.
