| Obverse description | At the upper portion of the obverse, the Small State Emblem (trident) of Ukraine is displayed above a semicircular legend reading НАЦІОНАЛЬНИЙ БАНК УКРАЇНИ (National Bank of Ukraine). The central field features a decorative composition of a dish bearing multiple pysanky (decorated Easter eggs) adorned with vegetational and geometric ornamentation patterns characteristic of various regions of Ukraine, set against a background of embroidered ritual towels (rushnyky). The denomination 20 / ГРИВЕНЬ and the date 2009 appear in the lower exergue. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a broad ornamental border rendered in the style of traditional pysanka geometric patterning, whose inner contour forms an egg-shaped cartouche enclosing the central design. Within this egg-shaped field, a seated woman — a pysanka maker — is depicted in the act of ornamenting an egg, while a young girl sits nearby observing the craft, together evoking the intergenerational transmission of Ukrainian folk art. The legend УКРАЇНСЬКА appears on the left arc of the ornamental border and ПИСАНКА on the right arc. |
