| Obverse description | Central field depicts a detailed relief view of the Three Towers of San Marino (Guaita, Cesta, and Montale) perched dramatically atop the rocky crags of Monte Titano, rendered with fine engraving detail against a stylised sky with horizontal cloud striations. The design is enclosed within a raised inner circle, with twelve five-pointed stars arranged around the border in the style of the European Union motif. The arc legend 'GRAND PRIX SAN MARINO' curves along the upper periphery in raised Latin capitals, while the commemorative dates '1981 - 2005' appear at the base of the border, flanked by stars. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features the large numeral '20' centrally positioned in the field, rendered in a bold serif style against an intricate guilloche background of finely engraved intersecting curved lines creating a basket-weave and radiating spiral pattern typical of Euro cent coin reverses. The denomination numeral dominates the design without additional inscriptions, the elaborate engine-turned background providing the sole decorative element across the entire reverse field. |
