| Reversbeschreibung | 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. |

South Africa's post-Union coinage was struck at Pretoria from 1923 onward, the mint having only received its royal warrant in 1919. The .800 silver standard used here was a deliberate departure from the .925 sterling used in British domestic coinage — a cost-saving measure adopted across several dominion mints in the early 1920s as silver prices remained volatile following the postwar commodity spike.
The 1923 issue was among the first coins struck entirely under South African authority rather than shipped from London or Bombay as earlier Union coinage had been.
