| Obverse description | The Jamaican coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield charged with five golden pineapples, supported on the dexter side by a Taino woman holding a basket of fruit and on the sinister side by a Taino man bearing a bow and arrow, both in traditional dress. A crocodile rests atop the heraldic helm above the shield. A scroll beneath the shield bears the national motto in the legend. The country name JAMAICA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination FIFTY DOLLARS and the date 1995 curve along the lower periphery. |

| Reverse description | A finely detailed left-facing portrait bust of Robert Nesta Marley dominates the field, rendered with particular attention to his characteristic flowing dreadlocks, which extend dramatically across the right portion of the design. His bearded profile is depicted in high relief with naturalistic sculptural quality. The legend arcing around the upper periphery reads 50th ANNIVERSARY THE HON ROBERT NESTA MARLEY O.M. 1945-1995, while THE LEGEND appears in the lower field separated by raised dots. |
