| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Botswana is depicted centrally, comprising a vertically oriented shield divided into three sections bearing a cogwheel and sorghum stalks above wavy lines representing water, and a bull's head below; the shield is supported on either side by rearing zebras, each grasping a tusk. A scroll beneath the supporters bears the national motto PULA in the field. The legend BOTSWANA arcs along the upper rim, with the date and the word IPELEGENG inscribed in the lower field below the arms. |

The pula replaced the South African rand at par in 1976, two years after Botswana's formal departure from the Rand Monetary Area — a deliberate assertion of economic independence from Pretoria at a time when the apartheid government still exerted considerable financial leverage over neighboring states. The word itself means "rain" in Setswana, carrying obvious weight in a country where roughly 70% of the land is Kalahari desert.
The brass-plated steel composition adopted for this series reflects a cost-driven reformulation common among African central banks after copper and nickel prices spiked in the 2000s.
