| Reverse description | Central device depicts a Sable Antelope (Hippotragus niger) standing in profile facing left, rendered in fine relief with characteristic long, swept-back horns. The denomination TWO SHILLINGS appears in the lower portion of the field, while the issuer's name SOUTHERN RHODESIA arcs along the upper periphery. The date 1947 is inscribed within the legend, and the designer's monogram KG is present, referencing engraver George Kruger Gray. The overall composition is enclosed within a beaded or plain inner border, consistent with Southern Rhodesian coinage of this period. |
