Reverse description At center, a group of three figures stands with arms raised, holding weapons and agricultural tools in a heroic composition characteristic of socialist realist iconography. To the left, stylized representations of coffee, cotton, and corn plants accompany the central group, above which a five-pointed star is positioned. The denomination is inscribed below the central device in the exergue. The upper legend reads 'A BANCA AO SERVICO DO POVO' (A Bank in Service of the People), and the lower legend reads '1976 ANO DA FUNDACAO DO B.N.A.' (1976 Year of the Founding of the BNA), commemorating the establishment of the Banco Nacional de Angola; the two legends are separated by a four-pointed star.
