| Aanvullende informatie |
Uganda's 1968 FAO coinage was part of a coordinated Food and Agriculture Organization campaign that saw dozens of newly independent nations issue coins bearing agricultural themes as a condition tied to FAO promotional funding and international visibility. For Uganda specifically, the timing coincided with government efforts to promote groundnut and cotton production as foreign exchange earners — the coin was as much a policy statement as a circulation piece.
At 28 grams in copper-nickel, this is a substantial piece for a five-shilling denomination, and examples that actually circulated are noticeably worn on the high points of the agricultural imagery.
