| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Kenya occupies the central field, depicting a Maasai shield and two crossed spears supported by two rampant lions, with a cockerel above the shield and agricultural motifs at the base, all above a scroll bearing the national motto HARAMBEE. The denomination '5000' appears in large numerals in the lower field, with 'FIVE THOUSAND SHILLINGS' inscribed along the lower border. The commemorative legend 'COMMEMORATING 40 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE 1963-2003' arcs around the upper periphery of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kenya's 2003 independence commemorative gold issue was authorized as part of a broader series marking the 40th anniversary of independence from Britain in December 1963. The denomination — 5,000 shillings — bore no relationship to everyday circulation; at issuance it far exceeded the face value of any standard Kenyan currency in use, placing it squarely in the proof commemorative category with negligible circulation intent.
Mintage figures for this issue are extremely low, consistent with the Central Bank's limited production runs for gold commemoratives of this period.
