Reverse description A bold cross of Saint Thomas with trefoil terminals occupies the central field, dividing the surface into four quadrants. The face value '2' and denomination abbreviation 'X' (for Xerafins) appear in the upper two quadrants, while the split date '18' and '19' are inscribed in the lower two quadrants. The cross is rendered in a plain, unadorned style characteristic of hammered Goa mint issues. A beaded border frames the entire design.
