| Obverse description | Bare left-facing effigy of President Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger (1825–1904), president of the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek, rendered in high relief with finely detailed facial features. The truncation of the bust is clearly defined, and the portrait reflects the characteristic engraving style of Otto Schultz. A legend encircles the effigy along the periphery of the coin. |

| Reverse description | The denomination '6' is centrally positioned within a wreath of two laurel branches, with the date '1897' divided on either side of the denomination. The initials 'Z.A.R.' (Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek) appear prominently above the central device. The wreath is tied at the base with a bow, and the overall composition is neatly contained within the coin's field in a style consistent with contemporary Boer Republic coinage. |
