| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Jan van Riebeeck, founder of the Cape Colony, rendered in high relief with flowing hair and a lace-trimmed collar characteristic of 17th-century Dutch fashion. The engraver's initials 'T.S.' appear in the lower left field. The Afrikaans legend 'SUID-AFRIKA' curves along the upper periphery, while the date appears vertically along the right side of the field. The portrait is executed in a naturalistic style after a period engraving. |
