| Additional information |
Issued as part of the International Year of Disabled Persons, declared by the United Nations for 1981, this proof was one of the earliest commemorative strikes from the Bank of Botswana. Botswana's commemorative coinage program was still nascent at this point — the country had only introduced the pula in 1976 following the transition away from the rand zone.
KM#P1 designation places it as the first catalogued proof issue for the series, though mintage figures remain poorly documented in the standard references.
