| Descripción del anverso |
The Tanzanian coat of arms occupies the central field, depicted in high relief and featuring an oval shield supported by two standing human figures — a man to the left and a woman to the right — each grasping an elephant tusk. The shield is quartered with motifs representing the nation's natural resources, surmounted by a flaming torch. A scroll at the base bears the legend UHURU NA UMOJA in raised Latin lettering. The country name TANZANIA arcs along the upper periphery, and the date 2001 appears in the lower field below the supporters. |

| Descripción del reverso |
A detailed engraving of a traditional African dhow under full sail dominates the central field, depicted navigating open waters with its characteristic lateen-rigged sails billowing. A second, smaller dhow is visible in the middle distance to the right, conveying a sense of maritime depth and perspective. Stylised waves rendered in low relief fill the lower field beneath the vessels. The legend AFRICAN DHOW curves along the upper rim in raised Latin letters, while the denomination 500 SHILLINGS is inscribed in two lines to the left of the primary vessel. |
