| Reverse description | A large numeral '5' dominates the central field, enclosed within a beaded circle. The country name MAURITIUS arcs across the upper periphery between two ornamental six-pointed rosette stops, while the denomination FIVE CENTS curves along the lower periphery, flanked by small dot stops. The date appears at the lower right, outside the beaded circle but within the legend arc. A toothed milling border frames the entire design. |
