| Reverse description | A bare-headed portrait bust of Kwame Nkrumah, first President of Ghana, faces right in high relief, occupying the central field. The legend 'CIVITATIS GHANIENSIS CONDITOR' arcs along the upper periphery, identifying him as the Founder of the State of Ghana. The name 'KWAME NKRUMAH' is inscribed along the lower periphery, flanked by two small five-pointed stars. The engraver's initials 'P.V.' for Paul Vincze appear discreetly on the truncation. The design is framed by a beaded border consistent with the obverse. |
