| Obverse description | Central field features a molded depiction of a tall coconut palm tree leaning slightly to the right, set against a stylized tropical seascape with horizontal wave lines indicating water and a low shoreline in the lower field. The design evokes the natural landscape of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. The legend KEELING- / COCOS Is appears to the right of the palm in two lines, with the date 1968 inscribed along the lower rim. All elements are rendered in dark relief against the red plastic field. |
