Beschrijving keerzijde Three children depicted in high-relief bust portraits facing the viewer, grouped together in the centre of the field, symbolising international unity of youth. Below the group, the official UNICEF International Year of the Child emblem — a stylised figure within a laurel wreath — is prominently displayed. The circumferential legend 'INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF THE CHILD 1979' arcs around the upper field, while the inscriptions '1 OZ. FINE GOLD' and '250 MALOTI' appear in the lower exergual area flanking the emblem, all enclosed within a beaded border and serrated outer rim.

Aanvullende informatie

The International Year of the Child was declared by the United Nations for 1979, and Lesotho was among the smaller nations that used the occasion to issue commemorative gold. Moshoeshoe II, who had been stripped of executive powers under Chief Leabua Jonathan's government following the disputed 1970 election, remained on the throne in a largely ceremonial capacity — his name lending legitimacy to state coinage while real authority sat elsewhere.

.917 fine at this weight puts the gold content just above one troy ounce.
