The reverse shows the denomination One Tenth of a Penny around the central hole, crowned by the imperial crown and accompanied by an Arabic inscription, reflecting the cultural diversity of the colonial territory.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
