Obverse description A young woman in traditional dress occupies the left margin as the primary vignette, rendered in fine intaglio against a richly coloured multicolour underprint. The central scene portrays a rural African landscape with cattle, market figures carrying produce, and thatched village structures, with a mosque-style tower visible in the middle distance. Decorative guilloche borders frame the note at top and bottom, with African masks and ornamental motifs at the upper corners, and the denomination '5000' appears at both upper left and upper right.
