| Obverse description | Uniformed bust of Emperor Haile Selassie I facing slightly left, depicted in military dress with epaulettes and decorations, occupying the central field. A Ge'ez legend encircles the upper portion of the obverse, reading the Emperor's full imperial title, while a Latin legend curves along the lower periphery identifying him as 'HAILE SELASSIE I EMPEROR OF ETHIOPIA' in Gothic-style lettering. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine engraved detail to the facial features and uniform, characteristic of the commemorative issues struck for the Emperor's jubilee. |
