| Reverse description | A mature African elephant strides purposefully to the right across a savanna landscape, its trunk raised in a trumpeting pose, conveying power and vitality. The animal is rendered with naturalistic detail, its massive form dominating the central field. A stylized representation of mountain peaks appears in the background. The date 1916 flanked by raised dots and the mint letter T, denoting the Tabora mint, appear as the sole reverse inscription within the lower field. |
