Nkhoma. Its obverse side shows a diagonal red SPECIMEN overprint, a fish eagle, the national coat of arms, a butterfly, and a portrait of President Kenneth Kaunda. Its reverse side features a diagonal red SPECIMEN overprint, the Freedom Statue in Lusaka, a zebra head, men working in a factory, and a carving of a topless female. Security features include an all-zero serial number, a solid security thread, and a watermark of Kenneth Kaunda. It is also a gem uncirculated note that qualified for Paper Money Guaranty’s Exceptional Paper Quality, experienced minor handling, and has above-average centering.
