| 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. |
