Obverse description The coat of arms of the Republic of The Gambia occupies the central field, depicting two lions rampant as supporters, each holding a tool — an axe and a hoe respectively — flanking a shield charged with a crossed axe and hoe. Above the shield rises a heraldic helmet surmounted by an oil palm as crest. A ribbon below bears the national motto. The date appears in the field. The circumferential legend reads REPUBLIC OF GAMBIA and PROGRESS PEACE PROSPERITY.

Reverse description A full-colour photographic-style rendering of a Slender-snouted Crocodile (Mecistops cataphractus) is depicted in the upper portion of the field, its elongated narrow snout prominently displayed facing left. Beneath the crocodile, two interlocking equilateral triangles forming a six-pointed star pattern are rendered in the silver-plated field. The denomination 1000 Dalasis appears to the lower left, while the legend GAMBIAN NATURAL TREASURES arcs along the upper border and the species name Slender-snouted Crocodile is inscribed within the field above the animal.
