| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Botswana occupies the central field, depicting a shield charged with three cogwheels above three wavy horizontal lines and a bull's head in base, supported on either side by a rearing zebra. A ribbon scroll below the shield bears the national motto 'PULA' in raised lettering. The legend 'BOTSWANA' arcs along the upper periphery, while the date '1989' and the word 'IPELEGENG' are inscribed in the lower field beneath the coat of arms. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed scene in high relief depicting a young child kneeling and milking a standing goat amid low scrub vegetation, evoking themes of rural self-sufficiency and child welfare central to the Save the Children Fund. The large numeral '2' is prominently displayed in the lower central field, with the denomination legend 'PULA' inscribed beneath in capital letters. The design is rendered in a naturalistic style with the figures occupying the upper portion of the field against a smooth, mirror-like proof background. |
