| Reverse description | A centrally placed spiny lobster (Palinurus sp.) is depicted in fine relief, facing upward with legs and antennae extended, set within an incuse circle that divides the field. The denomination 5 RUFIYAA is inscribed across the lower central portion of the lobster's body in bold Latin characters. A circular legend in Latin surrounds the design along the outer periphery, reading EMMENAH KAANAA FOOD FOR ALL, referencing the FAO World Food Day theme. Small circular ornaments punctuate the legend at intervals, and the reeded edge is visible at the coin's rim. |
