| Obverse description | Large, boldly modelled bare-headed effigy of King Olav V in left-facing profile, rendered in high relief with pronounced sculptural detailing of facial features and hair. The portrait occupies nearly the entire coin field, extending close to the rim, in a style reminiscent of medallic portraiture. A facsimile signature reading 'Olav R' (Rex) appears in cursive script in the lower right field. No peripheral legend is present on this face, the design relying entirely on the powerful realism of the royal portrait. |

| Reverse description | The Norwegian royal coat of arms — a crowned golden lion rampant holding an axe, displayed on a shield — occupies the centre of the field, surmounted by the royal crown rendered in fine detail. A circular legend arcs around the upper periphery, with the denomination and date inscribed along the lower portion of the rim, flanked by a mint mark. The design commemorates the 25th anniversary of King Olav V's reign. |
