100 Shillings Non-magnetic

Uganda's coinage in this period was produced under persistent procurement constraints, with the Bank of Uganda sourcing blanks and striking contracts from multiple foreign mints across different years of the run — a common arrangement for sub-Saharan central banks managing foreign exchange pressures through the late 1990s and 2000s. The non-magnetic designation distinguishes this issue from a later copper-plated steel version struck to cut production costs, and the two circulated concurrently long enough that the distinction became practically invisible to everyday users.
