背面描述	A large six-pointed star (hexagram) dominates the field, its two interlocking equilateral triangles framing the central circular perforation. The legend 'NIGERIA BRITISH WEST AFRICA' arcs around the upper periphery between the points of the star, while the date is divided at the lower exergue between two raised pellets, flanking the base of the hexagram. A milled border encircles the entire design.

附加信息	British West Africa was not a single colony but a collective monetary arrangement covering Nigeria, Gold Coast, Sierra Leone, and the Gambia — a currency union administered by the West African Currency Board, established in 1912. These earlier pieces predate the Board itself, issued instead under direct Crown authority during the transitional period when London was still working out how to unify four separate colonial economies under one coinage. The 1/10 penny denomination was peculiar to this region, designed to interact with the local cowrie shell economy still functioning in parts of the interior.
