Obverse description At right, an intaglio portrait of a young Zambian man in three-quarter right-facing view is set against a guilloche underprint in red and ochre tones. The Zambian coat of arms appears as a vignette at upper centre, with the denomination numeral K1 repeated in each corner within a geometric border of intricate cross-hatched guilloche work. A single Governor's signature appears below the central legend, with the serial number printed twice in red at upper left and lower right.

Reverse description At left, an intaglio vignette rendered in brown tones shows a seated male figure leaning over an open ledger or book. To the right, a large crowd in celebratory procession advances toward the viewer, with a figure bearing a flaming torch prominent among them against a receding crowd background. The central vignette is framed by a geometric guilloche border with K1 corner numerals, and the printer's imprint appears at the foot of the note.
