| Reverse description | The central device displays the full Tanzanian coat of arms: a vertically oriented shield supported on either side by a kneeling human figure, the shield charged with an axe and hoe in saltire over wavy lines, surmounted by a burning torch, and flanked by floral sprays at the base. A scroll below the shield bears the national motto UHURU NA UMOJA. The denomination numeral 20 appears prominently beneath the arms, with the legend MIAKA ISHIRINI YA UHURU 1961-1981 arcing along the upper border and SHILINGI ISHIRINI flanking the lower field, all separated by decorative lozenge stops. |
