Beschrijving voorzijde The coat of arms of the Republic of The Gambia occupies the central field, featuring two lions rampant as supporters, each holding respectively an axe and a hoe, flanking a shield charged with a crossed axe and hoe. Surmounting the shield is a heraldic helmet bearing an oil palm tree as a crest. Below the achievement, a ribbon displays the national motto. The circular legend naming the republic arcs along the upper periphery, with the date appearing at the base of the design.

Beschrijving keerzijde A full-color effigy of a Red-bellied Paradise Flycatcher (Terpsiphone rufiventer) is depicted perched on a naturalistic branch extending diagonally across the central field, rendered in vivid polychrome with its distinctive rust-orange body and dark blue-black head clearly visible. The bird faces left, set against a matte silver background decorated with a stylized geometric motif of overlapping triangles in the lower field. The denomination '1000 Dalasis' appears in large numerals to the lower left, with the species name inscribed to the upper left of the bird. The circular legend 'GAMBIAN NATIONAL TREASURES' arcs along the outer border.

Aanvullende informatie

The Gambia has issued commemorative coinage through external licensing arrangements for decades, with most modern issues produced for the collector market rather than domestic circulation — this piece never meaningfully entered the Gambian economy. The Red-bellied Paradise Flycatcher holds particular regional significance: the Gambia River basin supports one of West Africa's denser populations of the species, making it a defensible choice for a nation whose entire territory is defined by a single river corridor.

Silver-plated steel rather than solid silver — worth noting for long-term storage, as base metal encroachment through plating wear is irreversible.
