Obverse description Right-facing effigy of King Harald V of Norway rendered in high relief, with a clean truncation at the shoulder. The designer's initials 'NA' (for Nils Aas) appear to the left of the portrait in the field. The circumferential legend reads 'HARALD V NORGES KONGE', identifying the monarch by name and title, distributed evenly around the upper and lower periphery of the coin.

Reverse description The reverse displays the prow and upper hull of a stylised Viking longship occupying the left half of the design, rendered in a bold, graphic style. The denomination '20 KR' appears prominently in the field. The mint mark of Det Norske Myntverket — a crossed pick and hammer — divides the two-part date, with the first two digits to the left and the last two digits to the right of the mintmark. The mint director's initials are also present adjacent to the mintmark. On later issues the mintmark appears without director's initials.
