| Obverse lettering | DR THE RIGHT HONOURABLE SIR SEEWOOSAGUR RAMGOOLAM KT |
| Reverse description | The central device depicts two tall coconut palm trees flanking a large numeral '5', set against a scenic coastal landscape featuring smaller vegetation and gentle waves below. The engraver's initials 'JS' appear discreetly at lower left near the base of the palms. The country name 'MAURITIUS' and the date are inscribed along the upper periphery, while the denomination 'RUPEES' is displayed in a curved legend at the base of the design. The composition evokes the tropical character of the island nation, executed in fine detail by engraver John Savage. |
