| 背面描述 | A large five-pointed outline star dominates the central field, with the four digits of the date split to either side of the star's centre — '19' to the left and '65' to the right. The denomination legend is arranged around the periphery in two parts: FIVE along the upper arc and PESEWAS along the lower arc, conforming to the scalloped shape of the coin. Two small circular pellets flank the star at the mid-field on either side. The overall design is bold and graphic, with the star serving as the principal emblem of the Ghanaian state. |

Ghana's 1965 coinage series, of which this is a part, was introduced under Kwame Nkrumah's government as part of a broader push to establish distinctly Ghanaian national institutions following independence from Britain in 1957. The pesewa-based decimal system replaced the colonial pound-shilling structure that had persisted through the early independence years. Nkrumah was overthrown by military coup just months after these coins entered circulation, in February 1966, meaning the series is permanently associated with a government that had already ceased to exist by the time most Ghanaians handled the coins.
