Obverse description At the top of the obverse, the State Coat of Arms of the Republic of Belarus is shown in relief, flanked by the peripheral legend РЭСПУБЛIКА БЕЛАРУСЬ (THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS) above and 1 РУБЕЛЬ (1 RUBLE) below. The central field depicts a stylized Sun and crescent Moon set within a band of the twelve signs of the zodiac. Beneath the celestial imagery, the astrological symbol for Libra appears alongside the bilingual inscriptions LIBRA in Latin and ШАЛI in Belarusian. The year of issue 2009 is positioned at the lower left.

Reverse description The reverse presents a highly stylized, folk-art rendition of the Scales of Justice (balance), the traditional symbol of Libra, set against a starred field within a circular geometric ornament. The beam of the balance is suspended from a central pillar crowned with a spiral sun motif, with the left pan holding a stylized sun disc and the right pan a crescent moon form. The entire composition is enclosed by concentric decorative bands of scroll and chevron patterns, with an outer border of rosette-embossed roundels, lending the design a distinctly Belarusian folk-ornament aesthetic.
