Where & when
What's on the note
Front: National coat of arms of Burundi at center, featuring three spears, a lion's head, and the national motto 'UBUMWE, IBIKORWA, AMAJAMBERE' (Unity, Work, Progress) above and 'UNITE, TRAVAIL, PROGRES' (Unity, Work, Progress) below in a shield design. The coat of arms symbolizes the unity and strength of the Burundian nation after independence from Belgium in 1962. The bilingual inscriptions reflect Burundi's French colonial heritage and Kirundi national language.
Back: Burundian woman engaged in traditional basket weaving, representing the importance of indigenous crafts and the central role of women in Burundian agricultural and artisanal economy. Basket weaving has been a traditional craft in Burundi for centuries, with distinctive geometric patterns that are culturally significant. The scene celebrates the nation's cultural heritage and the contribution of rural communities to economic development.

Background & history
This note belongs to the 1991 issue of Burundian francs, which introduced updated designs following the country's political transitions. The series featured traditional cultural themes and national symbols. The date '01-10-91' (October 1, 1991) appears on this specific note. These notes circulated through the 1990s and early 2000s until being gradually replaced by newer series. Burundi has maintained the franc as its currency since independence in 1962.
