| Reverse description | A central circular hole is framed by two curved elephant tusks sweeping symmetrically inward from either side, their tips pointing toward the upper field where the numeral 1 is prominently displayed above the hole. The circular legend EAST AFRICA & UGANDA PROTECTORATES runs around the beaded outer border, with the date flanked by two raised dots positioned in the lower exergual area. The design is bold and simple, reflecting the utilitarian aesthetic of British colonial holed coinage. |
