| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Uganda occupies the central field, depicting a shield supported by a Uganda kob (Kobus thomasi) to the left and a grey crowned crane (Balearica regulorum) to the right, both standing on a grassy mound with the River Nile and the sun represented on the shield. The curved legend BANK OF UGANDA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 100 SHILLINGS is inscribed along the lower rim. The date is split either side of the arms, with '20' to the left and '10' to the right. The motto FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY appears on a scroll at the base of the arms. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Uganda has no particular geographic or historical connection to polar bears, placing this squarely in the category of coins struck for the international collector market rather than domestic circulation. The Bank of Uganda has issued a long series of large-format silver-plated pieces featuring exotic wildlife under its 100 Shillings denomination — a face value effectively meaningless against the coin's actual production cost.
KM#349 is a collector-market commodity, not a monetary instrument. The silver plating over copper-nickel is a cost-reduction measure standard to this market segment, and wear to the plating is common on handled examples.
