| Reverse description | The facade of Áras an Uachtaráin, the official residence of the President of Ireland, is depicted in the upper portion of the field, rendered in fine architectural detail with its distinctive neoclassical portico, columns, and multi-paned windows. The denomination 10 EURO appears as a legend at the top of the field above the building. In the lower portion, a series of dynamic silhouetted figures engage in various activities associated with the Gaisce — The President's Award programme, including athletics, photography, music, dance, hiking, and cycling. The inscription GAISCE 25 YEARS is positioned centrally across the midfield, commemorating the 25th anniversary of the youth achievement programme. |

| Additional information |
Gaisce — the Irish word for "achievement" or "feat" — is a presidential awards scheme established in 1985 under the patronage of the Irish head of state, modeled closely on the Duke of Edinburgh's Award. This coin was issued to mark the program's 25th anniversary. Participation requires young people to complete challenges across physical activity, personal skill, and community involvement, with the Gold Award demanding a four-day wilderness journey.
