| Reverse description | The central vignette presents a large intaglio scene of a farmer operating a tractor ploughing a field, with a rural landscape of trees, hills, and traditional tukul huts in the background. To the left, a colourful vignette of a traditional Ethiopian woven mesob (basket table) is rendered in multicolour intaglio. The Derg-era national arms — a cogwheel enclosing a radiant sun above a landscape, wreathed by wheat — appear in an oval cartouche at the right, with denomination numerals at upper right and lower left within guilloche borders. |
