Beschrijving voorzijde The national coat of arms of the Republic of Namibia occupies the central field, featuring a heraldic shield decorated with diagonal stripes and a sunburst motif, supported by two rampant oryx antelopes flanking either side. A fish eagle with wings displayed surmounts the shield as the crest, resting on a traditional Namibian hat. Below the shield, a scroll bears the national motto in Latin lettering: UNITY · LIBERTY · JUSTICE. The date 1995 appears in the lower field, with the legend REPUBLIC OF NAMIBIA arcing along the lower periphery.

Beschrijving keerzijde The central field depicts a rural African village scene in high relief, showing figures engaged in daily agricultural labour beside traditional thatched-roof dwellings; a seated woman and standing figures working the land evoke themes of peace and community. In the upper portion of the field, the prominent numeral 50 is rendered in a bold stylised design, incorporating the United Nations emblem — a world map flanked by olive branches — within the zero. The legend NATIONS UNITED FOR PEACE arcs around the upper and right periphery, while the dates 1945 and 1995 and the denomination 10 DOLLARS appear along the lower border, separated by raised dots, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.

Aanvullende informatie

Namibia's currency infrastructure was built almost from scratch after independence in 1990, with the Namibian dollar replacing the South African rand at par in 1993. This commemorative marked the 50th anniversary of the United Nations, an organization whose involvement in Namibia ran unusually deep — the territory was administered under a UN mandate following the revocation of South Africa's League of Nations mandate in 1966, a decision Pretoria ignored for over two decades.

The prolonged legal battle over Namibian sovereignty produced some of the most consequential ICJ advisory opinions of the Cold War period.
