| Obverse description | The full arms of Uganda occupy the central field, featuring a shield divided into six sections and charged with a drum and a traditional hut, supported by a Uganda kob to the left and a grey crowned crane to the right, both standing on a grassy mound. Two crossed spears appear behind the shield. A scroll at the base bears the national motto in the legend. The circular legend reads BANK OF UGANDA and 1000 SHILLINGS along the periphery, with the date 1999 divided across the lower field flanking the supporters. |
