| Reverse description | Central design featuring a composition of agricultural motifs symbolic of Tanzania's FAO development programme, including cereal stalks, banana plants, and maize, alongside a dairy cow, representing the fields of agriculture, horticulture, and dairy development. The denomination SHILINGI 5 TANO appears prominently within or around the design, with TANO being the Swahili word for five. The overall arrangement fills the reverse field in a balanced, illustrative style consistent with FAO commemorative coinage of the period. |
