| Reverse description | A male sugar cane harvester is depicted in dynamic pose at centre, his body lowered and one knee raised as he swings a billhook overhead to cut the cane, surrounded on either side by tall sugar cane plants rendered in high relief. The issuer's name 'MAURITIUS' arcs across the upper legend, while the denomination 'TWENTY FIVE RUPEES' curves along the lower periphery. The composition, engraved by Bernard Sindall, reflects the central importance of the sugar cane industry to the Mauritian economy and national identity. |
