Obverse description The obverse features a right-facing effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a tiara, set within a circular inset occupying the upper portion of the field. The background field, rendered in high relief, depicts a training ground surface with dog paw prints scattered across it, along with partially visible training equipment including a handler's sleeve and leash, suggesting the working environment of a service dog. The legend NIUE ISLAND arcs along the upper left rim, while ELIZABETH II appears along the upper right rim. The denomination 1 DOLLAR and the date 2021 are inscribed along the lower rim, separated by dashes. The mint mark of the Czech Mint and the engraver's initials appear beneath the portrait.

Reverse description The reverse presents two artistic depictions of a German Shepherd dog within a single composition. The left portion of the field features a full-color representation of a German Shepherd, emphasizing the breed's characteristic black and tan coat rendered in polychrome enamel. The right portion presents a high-relief sculptural depiction of the same breed in a working context on a training ground, shown in uncolored silver. The legend NĚMECKÝ OVČÁK arcs along the upper portion of the field in Czech, with GERMAN SHEPHERD inscribed below in English, together identifying the breed in both languages. The contrasting design techniques create a dynamic visual interplay between naturalistic color and sculptural relief.
