Obverse description The obverse features the national coat of arms of Rwanda prominently displayed in the center field, rendered in niobium relief. The arms depict a traditional Rwandan shield flanked by a coffee plant branch and a sorghum stalk, with a sun at the apex and a cog wheel and knotted rope at the base. The entire design is struck in a distinctive violet-purple niobium hue. The circular legend reads 'BANKI NASIYONALI Y'U RWANDA' at the top and 'REPUBLIKA Y'U RWANDA' continuing around the field, with the denomination '500' and 'AMAFARANGA MAGANA ATANU' displayed prominently in the lower portion.
