| Obverse description | The entire coin face is rendered as the surface of a basketball, with the characteristic dimpled leather texture and raised seam lines forming the field. The Lithuanian national coat of arms — the Vytis, depicting an armoured knight on horseback — is prominently placed in the upper central field. Below the central seam, the legend 'LIETUVA' and the denomination '1 LITAS' are inscribed in bold raised lettering integrated into the basketball design. The mint mark 'LMK' appears alongside the denomination, and the date '2011' is placed in the lower exergual area near the coin's rim. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents the full face of a basketball rendered in high relief, with the characteristic dimpled surface texture and curved seam lines occupying the entire field. Set within the lower right quadrant of the basketball, the commemorative legend is inscribed in three lines of bold raised lettering: '2011 / EUROPOS KREPŠINIO / ČEMPIONATAS', commemorating the 2011 European Basketball Championship hosted by Lithuania. The design integrates the lettering organically into the ball's surface, creating a unified and dynamic composition. |
