| Reverse description | A stylized ornamental tree with a central trunk rising from a wavy baseline suggestive of water, flanked by symmetrical scrolling and foliate branches terminating in decorative curls. The upper rim is bordered by a row of small pellets or dashes forming a partial inner circle. The overall composition is characteristic of the primitive engraving style associated with early Dutch colonial plantation coinage of Suriname. |
