| Obverse description | Portrait of President Mobutu Sese Seko in military dress occupies the central vignette, with a leopard vignette to the lower left; a windowed security thread with demetallized text 'REPUBLIQUE DU ZAIRE' runs vertically through the note. The Mobutu portrait also serves as the watermark, visible when the note is held to light. |

| Reverse description | The left portion carries an intaglio vignette of traditional fishermen working elevated stick-net structures over a river, rendered in fine line engraving against a multicolour guilloche underprint. To the right, a large ornate diamond-shaped guilloche rosette in graduated pink and green tones forms the central security element, with the numeral '200' set below it. The Giesecke & Devrient printer's imprint appears at lower left, and the bank's monogram device in orange and green is placed at lower right, alongside the anti-counterfeiting warning 'LE CONTREFACTEUR EST PUNI DE SERVITUDE PENALE' at upper right. |
