| Reverse description | A plain, unlegended truncated bust of Kenya's first President, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, faces left, rendered in fine relief against a smooth, unadorned field. The portrait captures Kenyatta in a suit and open-collar shirt, with his characteristic short beard and natural hair, conveying a dignified and statesmanlike presence. No inscriptions, legends, or exergual text appear on this side, giving the effigy an austere and commanding quality. |
