| Obverse description | Within a decorative wreath composed of stylized flora and fauna motifs, the small National Emblem of Ukraine (trident) is centrally engraved in the field. Below the emblem, a four-line Cyrillic legend reads УКРАЇНА, 10 ГРИВЕНЬ, and 1999, denoting the issuing country, denomination, and date respectively. The overall design is framed by the encircling wreath, lending the obverse a symmetrical, ornamental character consistent with Ukrainian commemorative coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a centrally positioned garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus) depicted in high relief, perched upon a raspberry twig with foliage rendered in naturalistic detail. A circular legend in Cyrillic and Latin scripts frames the design, reading СОНЯ САДОВА at the upper arc and ELIOMYS QUERCINUS along the lower arc, providing both the Ukrainian vernacular name and the scientific binomial of the species. The composition emphasizes the animal's characteristic large eyes and bushy tail, executed in a fine naturalistic style typical of Ukrainian wildlife commemorative issues. |
