Obverse description At centre, the coat of arms of Transnistria — a Soviet-style emblem featuring a hammer and sickle surmounted by a five-pointed star, flanked by sheaves of wheat and bearing the initials РМН on a shield — rendered in high relief against a mirror field. The denomination 20 РУБЛЕЙ appears in the lower portion of the field, flanked by raised dots, with the date 2018 above it and the fineness notation Ag 925 and weight 31,1 to the right. The circular legend ПРИДНЕСТРОВСКИЙ РЕСПУБЛИКАНСКИЙ БАНК runs along the upper periphery in Cyrillic characters, with a mint mark at lower left.

Reverse description A devotional scene depicting the Orthodox Christian sacrament of baptism occupies the full field in high relief. A winged angel stands at left, holding an Orthodox cross in the right hand with a gilded halo about the head; an Orthodox priest stands at right, wearing liturgical vestments and bearing a gilded pectoral cross. Between them, an infant is immersed in a baptismal font, the scene conveying solemnity and spiritual grace. Selective gold gilding highlights the halos and crosses, adding chromatic contrast to the frosted silver relief. The curved Cyrillic legend ТАИНСТВО КРЕЩЕНИЯ arcs along the upper periphery.
