| Obverse description | The South African coat of arms displayed centrally in the field, featuring the distinctive post-2000 design with a Khoisan motto ribbon at the base bearing the ǀXam legend ǃKE Eː ǀXARRA ǁKE. The country name appears in two official languages flanking the shield, rendered identically in both Sepedi and Sesotho as 'Afrika Borwa'. The date of issue is inscribed within the legend. The design is executed in a detailed relief style reflecting the official national heraldry. |

| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of the King Protea (Protea cynaroides), South Africa's national flower, rendered in high relief and occupying the majority of the reverse field. The flowerhead and surrounding foliage are shown in naturalistic style, with prominent bracts and leaves extending toward the coin's edge. The denomination '20' appears boldly in large numerals in the upper portion of the field, with the unit indicator 'c' positioned to the lower right of the numeral. The overall composition is balanced, with the floral motif providing a strong national symbolism characteristic of the post-apartheid South African coinage series. |
