| Reverse description | A highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) viewed from below dominates the field, rendered in fine relief showing fronds, trunk, and clusters of coconuts — emblematic of the FAO theme of food and agricultural development. An inscription in Thaana script arcs across the upper portion of the field. The denomination 100/- is inscribed in large numerals along the lower rim. Two vertical lines frame the design on either side, and the whole is enclosed within a reeded border. |
