| Reverse description | The upper half of the reverse features a detailed relief reproduction of the historic 1815 Griqua Town five-penny coin, rendered in an antique textured finish to evoke the original hammered appearance, showing the Roman numeral denomination 'I I I I I' at the top and the legend 'TOWN' below a central lozenge device. The lower half of the field, in polished proof finish, bears the face value designation 'R2' at centre, flanked by the commemorative inscription '1815 · BICENTENNIAL · 2015' and the legend 'COINAGE OF GRIQUA TOWN' arranged in an arc. The metal content and fineness '1 oz Ag 925 Cu 75' is inscribed to the right, and the engraver's initials 'PB' appear to the lower left of the reproduced coin image. |
