A scroll at the base bears the motto ONE ZAMBIA ONE NATION. The date 1997 is divided across the field flanking the supporters, with 19 to the left and 97 to the right. The legend ZAMBIA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 2000 KWACHA curves along the lower periphery. The coin is struck to proof standard with a deeply mirrored field.
