| Reverse description | The central field displays a finely detailed high-relief depiction of a maize plant in full ear, its husks and silk rendered with botanical precision, symbolizing Nigerian agricultural heritage. To the left of the maize, a schematic vignette of oil derricks and industrial infrastructure alludes to Nigeria's petroleum industry. The denomination '1000 NAIRA' is inscribed in bold numerals and lettering to the right of center.
