| Obverse description | The obverse features the coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia at center, depicting a quartered shield with a rising sun in the upper half and three lions passant in the lower quarters, supported by a rampant lion to the left and a griffin to the right, both rendered in fine relief. Three stars appear above the shield, symbolizing the three historical regions of Latvia. The curved legend LATVIJAS arcs along the upper rim, while REPUBLIKA runs along the lower rim. The date 2007 is divided and positioned to either side of the base of the shield in the lower field. The design is executed in a precise, detailed style with strong relief against a mirror-like field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylized representation of an ancient Latvian owl-shaped fibula (brooch), a traditional Baltic decorative clasp rendered in bold, flat relief at center. The fibula is depicted frontally, with characteristic rounded head featuring dot-punched ornamentation, prominent lateral projections suggesting wings or ears, and a tapering lower body with granulated beaded borders along all edges. The denomination numeral 1 appears in large format to the left of the fibula, and the inscription LATS is positioned to its right. The overall composition is uncluttered, with the fibula serving as the dominant decorative motif against a polished field. |
