Reverse description Central numeral '6' in a large, open font, enclosed within a finely detailed wreath of protea leaves and berries tied at the base with a ribbon bow, a design attributed to George Kruger Gray. A small decorative ornament or rosette appears at the top of the wreath. The bilingual legend SOUTH AFRICA · ZUID-AFRIKA arcs around the upper field, reflecting the coin's dual English and Afrikaans inscription policy. The date appears in the lower exergual area below the wreath, flanked by the engraver's initials KG on the left and a small mintmark device on the right.
