Obverse description The Bohemian lion rampant, bearing the Slovak double-cross shield on its breast, occupies the central field. The heraldic device is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the mane and claws. The circular legend REPUBLIKA ČESKOSLOVENSKÁ arcs around the upper periphery, while the date 1922 appears in the lower field flanked by small star ornaments. The overall design reflects the early republican iconography established for Czechoslovakia following its founding in 1918.

Reverse description A boldly modelled female figure, rendered in a neoclassical style, stands at centre in three-quarter view, her right arm raised above her head supporting a sheaf of wheat. She grasps a sickle in her left hand, with additional wheat stalks visible to the right of the composition. The large numeral 1 dominates the left portion of the field. The engraver's signature O·ŠPANIEL appears in small lettering in the lower right exergual area, attesting to Otakar Španiel's authorship of the design.
