| Reverse description | The central vignette presents a finely engraved classroom scene of female students seated at individual school desks, set within the outline of a map of Sierra Leone rendered as an underprint vignette. Two diagonal ribbon banners bearing the legend EDUCATION FOR GENDER EMPOWERMENT encircle the main vignette. The denomination numeral appears in black at upper left and right corners, with the value in words printed in bold at the lower centre, all against a warm orange and gold guilloche background. |
