| 正面描述 | The full coat of arms of Malawi occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield supported by a lion rampant to the left and a leopard rampant to the right. Above the shield, a rising sun crest radiates from a traditional African headdress. A scroll below the supporters bears the national motto UNITY AND FREEDOM in raised Latin lettering. The country name MALAWI is inscribed in large capitals along the lower rim. |

KM#34a is the copper-plated steel successor to the original bronze KM#34, a composition change driven by the rising cost of copper in the early 2000s that affected small-denomination coinage across much of sub-Saharan Africa. Malawi's tambala denominations were already of negligible purchasing power by this point — cumulative kwacha inflation had eroded their utility to near zero — yet the Reserve Bank continued striking them for formal tender compliance.
