| Reverse description | View of the stone ruins of Great Zimbabwe, the ancient city constructed between the 13th and 15th centuries that served as the capital of the Kingdom of Zimbabwe and the center of a vast trading empire extending across present-day Zimbabwe and Mozambique. The architectural remnants, including characteristic dry-stone walling, are depicted in a detailed landscape composition. The denomination '$1' appears prominently in the field. The design was engraved by Jeff Huntly. |

| Additional information |
Zimbabwe's dollar had been under sustained pressure since the late 1990s, when the government's involvement in the Democratic Republic of Congo conflict and the onset of the fast-track land reform programme began gutting foreign currency reserves. This coin was struck just as annual inflation crossed into triple digits — a threshold that, within a few years, would render every circulating denomination an artifact of a monetary system in free collapse.
