| Obverse description | The State Coat of Arms of the Republic of Belarus is displayed at the top of the field. The central device features stylized silhouetted images of tortoises and female figures drawn from Belarusian folk legend, interwoven with traditional ornamental patterns and a spinning wheel motif whose decorative spokes transition organically into the concentric ring structure of a tree cross-section, symbolising perpetual motion and the cycle of nature. The year of issue and alloy fineness appear in the lower field. Circumferential legends read РЭСПУБЛІКА БЕЛАРУСЬ at the top and 20 РУБЛЁЎ at the bottom. |
