| Reverse description | Large numeral '50' in ornate raised figures occupies the centre of the coin, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The upper arc of the outer legend reads STRAITS SETTLEMENTS, flanked by raised dots, while the lower arc reads FIFTY CENTS followed by the date 1889, all separated by raised dots. The overall design is plain and functional, with the denomination clearly dominant within the beaded circle, set against a flat field, and enclosed by a beaded outer border. |
