| Obverse description | The State Coat of Arms of the Republic of Belarus is prominently displayed at the top of the field. The central design features a spinning wheel, a symbol of perpetual motion and folk culture, whose decorative pattern transitions into the concentric ring structure of a tree cross-section, embellished with traditional Belarusian ornamental motifs and stylized stork silhouettes. The date of issue and the alloy standard appear beneath the central device. A circumferential legend at the top reads РЭСПУБЛІКА БЕЛАРУСЬ (THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS), while the denomination 20 рублёў (20 rubles) and the fineness mark Ag 925 are inscribed along the lower periphery. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, stylized silhouette of a stork in flight, wings extended upward and arched to form an embracing, almost circular composition — a central motif of Belarusian folk legend symbolizing the homeland. Within the embrace of the wings, celestial and mythological symbols are depicted: a field of stars, a crescent moon rendered in the form of a coiled serpent, and a frog portrayed as a constellation, all referencing elements of traditional Belarusian legend. The interior of the stork silhouette is further enriched with intricate national Belarusian ornamental patterns. A circumferential inscription along the lower border reads ЛЕГЕНДА ПРА БУСЛА (THE LEGEND OF THE STORK). |
