| Obverse description | The state emblem of the Mongolian People's Republic (in use 1960–1992) occupies the central field, depicting a mounted horseman (the Soyombo symbol) set against a rising sun, flanked by symmetrical wheat sheaves bound at the base, and surmounted by a five-pointed star; a ribbon bearing the Cyrillic abbreviation БНМАУ appears at the centre of the wreath base. The denomination НЭГ ТӨГРӨГ (One Tögrög) is inscribed in two lines in large Cyrillic characters beneath the emblem. The circular legend БҮГД НАЙРАМДАХ МОНГОЛ АРД УЛС runs along the upper periphery. |

The International Year of Peace, declared by the United Nations for 1986, prompted a wave of commemorative issues from member states — Mongolia among them. At the time, the Mongolian People's Republic was a Soviet satellite in every practical sense, and its participation in UN-themed coinage carried an implicit political dimension: alignment with Moscow's sustained "peace offensive" propaganda campaign of the mid-1980s, which framed Soviet foreign policy as defensive while NATO deployments were characterized as aggression.
These pieces saw negligible circulation. Issued primarily for the collector market and diplomatic exchange.
