正面描述 Crowned and draped effigy of Queen Victoria facing left, engraved by Leonard Charles Wyon. The Queen wears a small coronet set over flowing hair, with a ribbon tied at the nape of the neck. The legend VICTORIA QUEEN is arranged in two arcs flanking the portrait, reading upward on the left and downward on the right. A fine dentillated border frames the entire obverse field. The mintmark H, denoting Heaton and Sons, Birmingham, appears on some issues below the truncation.

附加信息

Mauritius adopted a decimal currency system in 1877, replacing the older rupee-based fractional coinage with a new series tied directly to the Indian rupee at parity. The 20-cent denomination was peculiar to the island — no equivalent piece circulated in Britain or most other colonial possessions — reflecting the specific small-transaction needs of a sugar-export economy dependent on indentured labor from India and Madras following emancipation in 1835.

The .800 silver standard rather than sterling .925 was a deliberate cost reduction, matching the fineness used across several contemporary British colonial issues in Asia and the Indian Ocean.
