25 Shillings FAO, Silver Piedfort

The FAO coin program, launched in 1968, commissioned member nations to issue coins bearing agricultural themes as part of a broader push to publicize the Food and Agriculture Organization's campaigns against world hunger. Somalia participated intermittently. The piedfort format — struck on a planchet roughly twice the standard thickness — was favored for collector issues of this period, particularly from smaller issuing nations whose regular circulation strikes had little market appeal on their own.

KM#P3 is sparsely documented, with mintage figures unconfirmed in standard references.
