| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Queen Beatrix rendered in a stylized, modern portrait by artist Shaking-van der Meer, depicted with simplified facial features and a rounded head against a mirrored field. The circular legend BEATRIX KONINGIN DER NEDERLANDEN surrounds the portrait, repeated in a spiraling typographic arrangement characteristic of the Dutch gulden coinage of this era. The lettering appears in multiple orientations, creating a distinctive rotational effect around the central effigy. |

| Reverse description | Central device depicts a whimsical, child-like figure of a lion rampant rendered in a naive, playful artistic style, with outstretched arms and legs and a rounded body, evoking the traditional Dutch heraldic lion in an abstracted form. The denomination 1 G flanks the figure to the left and right, with the date 2001 inscribed below. The design was created by Meent Venema and serves as a commemorative farewell to the Dutch gulden, celebrating the currency's final year of issue before the introduction of the euro. |
