| Obverse description | Within an oval field struck with contrasting matte and mirror-polished finishes, multiple Demoiselle Cranes (Anthropoides virgo) are depicted in varied attitudes: two prominently silhouetted specimens with outstretched wings dominate the left portion of the field, while additional cranes rendered in fine outline populate the right. The National Coat of Arms of the Kyrgyz Republic appears centrally within a circular medallion. The date 2017 is inscribed to the lower left, and the Cyrillic legend КЫРГЫЗСТАНДЫН КЫЗЫЛ КИТЕБИ curves along the lower rim, identifying the Red Book of Kyrgyzstan conservation series. |

| Reverse description | Two selectively gold-gilded Demoiselle Cranes (Anthropoides virgo) are depicted face to face at the center of the oval field in a courtship display, their plumage rendered in fine engraved detail with applied gilding highlighting the principal figures. Three smaller cranes in flight are distributed across the background, conveying depth and movement. The Latin binomial Anthropoides Virgo and the Kyrgyz common name Каркыра appear as legends across the field, with the denomination 10 СОМ inscribed below. |
