| Reverse description | A central denomination '10F' is encircled by a stylized wheel-shaped arrangement of indigenous agricultural products, including banana, maize, and wheat stalks, radiating symmetrically from the center. The design emphasizes Burundi's agrarian heritage through the balanced grouping of these crops. The composition is contained within a plain border, with the denomination rendered in bold relief at the hub of the agricultural wheel motif. |

| Additional information |
Burundi's franc coinage has been repeatedly disrupted by the country's cycles of civil conflict — the 1993–2005 war left the central bank's operations severely constrained, and restoring a functioning coin supply afterward was a slow, underfunded process. The 2011 date on KM#21 falls within a period when the Banque de la République du Burundi was still rebuilding institutional stability following the Arusha Peace Agreement's implementation.
