| Obverse description | The Estonian coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting three passant blue lions arranged vertically within a heraldic shield. The date of issue is split across the left and right flanks of the shield, with '20' appearing to the lower left and '08' to the lower right. The lions are rendered in fine relief with detailed mane and claw work, reflecting the national arms tradition. The field surrounding the shield is unadorned, allowing the armorial design to dominate the flan. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a stylised floral or foliate emblem — a circular device enclosing two leaf-like forms — commemorating Estonian independence. The denomination '1 KROON' is inscribed in bold raised lettering along the lower portion of the field. The legend 'EESTI VABARIIK' (Republic of Estonia) arcs around the upper periphery of the coin in evenly spaced capital letters. The overall design is clean and modern, with minimal ornamentation beyond the central device and inscriptions. |
