| Beschrijving keerzijde | A centrally placed Protea flower in bloom, with broad petals and a prominent domed centre, rising from a leafed stem above the designer's initials 'K.G.' The floral motif is framed by six diagonal fasces-like bundles of reeds arranged symmetrically in pairs at the upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right, and flanking sides, forming a geometric lattice around the central device. The bilingual legend SOUTH AFRICA and ZUID-AFRIKA arcs around the upper field, with the denomination 6 PENCE appearing at the base, all separated by small lozenge stops. The design is enclosed by a dentillated border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
South Africa's first domestic coinage followed the establishment of the Pretoria Mint in 1923, ending the country's reliance on Royal Mint branches and imported British coin. These sixpences were struck under contract arrangements that gave the new mint considerable latitude in alloy specification — the .800 fine silver standard adopted here differed from the .925 used in contemporary British sixpences, a deliberate cost-control decision tied to post-war silver price volatility.
The KM#16.1 designation covers the full 1925–1930 run before the modified reverse of KM#16.2 appeared. Mintages across the six years varied sharply, with 1926 representing the lowest output of the series.
