Reverse description The central device depicts a tall palm tree in bold relief, its fronds spreading across the upper field, with low grasses at its base. Flanking the trunk on either side, the field is filled with two columns of text legends arranged in a decorative layout: to the left 'THE GOVERNMENT OF RIGHT / THE RELIGION OF GOODNESS', and to the right 'THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IMPROVED BY THE BEST WORDS OF ALL OTHER LANGUAGES'. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, and a suspension hole is pierced at the top rim.
