| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Somali national coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring a shield bearing a five-pointed star, supported by two leopards rampant as flanking supporters. A mural crown surmounts the shield, and a crossed spear and palm fronds appear below as base ornamentation. The legend REPUBLIC OF SOMALIA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 25 SHILLINGS is inscribed along the lower field. The design is rendered in sharp relief against a smooth field, enclosed by a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Somalia issued this piece under a broader late-1990s program of thematic coinage produced almost entirely for the collector export market — the country had no functioning central government at the time, the Somali National Bank effectively non-operational following the state's collapse in 1991. The licensing arrangements behind these issues remain opaque, with production almost certainly contracted to a European mint and distribution handled through third-party numismatic wholesalers.
The Hanseatic cog itself was the dominant cargo vessel of northern European trade from roughly the 12th through 15th centuries, its design optimized for the shallow, stormy waters of the Baltic and North Sea routes.
