| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by a large five-pointed star in high relief, with the date 1958 flanking the upper point — numerals 19 to the left and 58 to the right. The country name GHANA arcs along the upper legend within a beaded border, while the denomination TEN SHILLINGS curves along the lower legend. Two raised dots flank the star at mid-field. The overall design is stark and heraldic, emphasizing the Black Star of Africa as Ghana's national symbol. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ghana's independence from Britain in March 1957 made it the first sub-Saharan African country to shed colonial rule, and this 1958 issue was among the first coinage struck for the new republic under Kwame Nkrumah. The pieces were minted at the Royal Mint in London — a quiet irony that was not lost on contemporaries.
