| Obverse description | The Somali national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a crowned heraldic shield bearing a five-pointed star, supported on either side by leopards rampant. Below the shield, crossed spears and an olive branch are displayed on a ribbon. The dates 1960 and 1970 flank the shield at left and right respectively, commemorating the tenth anniversary of independence. A bilingual legend in Latin and Arabic script arcs around the upper periphery reading REPUBBLICA DEMOCRATICA SOMALIA in Italian and its Arabic equivalent, while the lower legend reads X ANNIVERSARIO INDIPENDENZA in Italian with the Arabic equivalent below. |
