Beneath the pedestal are the two letters 'K' and 'G', denoting the initials of the artist George Edward Kruger-Gray. To the left of the bird are the digits '19', and to the right '36', indicating the year of issue. To the left is the word 'SOUTHERN', its beginning marked by a dot, and to the right 'RHODESIA', its end marked by a dot, translating from English as 'Southern Rhodesia', which at this time was a British colony. Below, between dots, is the inscription 'ONE SHILLING'. The edge of the coin features raised serrated designs.
