| Obverse description | The national emblem of the Lao People's Democratic Republic is centrally depicted in high relief, featuring the That Luang stupa set amid a landscape of trees and rice sheaves, framed by a cogwheel at the base with a ribbon bearing an inscription in Lao script. The circular legend 'THE LAO PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin letters, while the denomination '1000 KIP' appears in the lower field. A beaded border runs along the inner rim of the coin. |

| Reverse description | Two red-shanked douc langurs (Pygathrix nemaeus) are depicted in finely detailed high relief, seated upon a naturalistic tree branch that extends across the lower portion of the field. The larger adult figure faces left while a juvenile clings beside it, both rendered with exceptional fur and facial detail. The binomial scientific name 'PYGATHRIX NEMAEUS' arcs along the upper legend in Latin letters, and the date '2001' appears in the lower exergue. The polished proof fields provide a strong contrast to the frosted devices. |
