| Obverse description | An owl perched upon a branch is depicted in detailed relief, gazing downward with attentive stillness, evoking the bird's legendary patience and hunting acuity. The design is rendered in a naturalistic style with careful attention to feather texture and posture. The legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH arcs around the upper field, with the denomination 20 EURO and the split date 20 21 inscribed in the lower field. |

| Reverse description | A highly stylised, frontal effigy of an owl's face dominates the field, rendered in a graphic, contemporary artistic style. The owl's large, prominent eyes are set with multi-faceted golden-yellow Swarovski crystals that catch and refract light, serving as the focal decorative element of the design. The surrounding facial plumage is abstracted into bold geometric forms, creating a striking contrast between the naturalistic obverse and this modernist reverse composition. |
