The date is divided by the arms, appearing to the left and right in the lower field. The peripheral legend reads 'REPUBLIC OF KENYA' along the upper arc, while 'TWO SHILLINGS' curves along the lower arc. The numeral '2' appears in the lower central field beneath the arms, and a ribbon scroll bearing the national motto 'HARAMBEE' is displayed at the base of the shield. |
