| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large Aldabra giant tortoise (Aldabrachelys gigantea) depicted in three-quarter view in the central field, resting among grass and low vegetation. Behind the tortoise, a detailed architectural landscape features a colonial-style building with trees and foliage framing the scene, evoking the historic grounds of Saint Helena. The legend ST. HELENA arcs above in the upper field, and TWENTY FIVE PENCE curves along the lower periphery. The entire composition is executed in high-relief proof style against a polished mirror field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Saint Helena issued this proof alongside a cupro-nickel circulation strike to mark Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee — a coordinated commemorative program that ran across dozens of British dependent territories simultaneously in 1977. The island's connection to the Crown carries unusual historical weight: it was a Crown Colony under the East India Company before reverting to direct Crown control in 1834, and remained one of the most geographically isolated British territories on earth, some 1,200 miles from the nearest continental landmass.
KM#6a distinguishes the silver proof from the base-metal KM#6, both sharing identical dies.
