| Reverse description | A large numeral 2 dominates the central field, surmounted by a royal crown of St. Edward's style. The denomination is flanked on either side by symmetrical sprays of oak leaves and acorns, arranged in a wreath-like composition that frames the central design. The circular legend UNITED COLONY OF DEMERARY & ESSEQUIBO arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while the date 1832 appears in the lower exergual area beneath the wreath. The overall design is clean and heraldic, reflecting the standard colonial coinage style of the early nineteenth century. |
