Additional information

Kenya's first coinage as an independent republic launched in 1966, replacing the East African Currency Board issues that had circulated across Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania under a shared colonial monetary arrangement. The "Without legend" designation distinguishes this type from a later variety — the reverse carries no "Republic of Kenya" inscription, a detail corrected in subsequent issues as the new central bank refined its house style.
