| Obverse description | The obverse features the coat of arms of Ukraine — the trident (tryzub) displayed on a shield — centrally positioned in the field, flanked on either side by ornate flowering branches rendered in high relief. The date 1996 appears above the shield, while the country name УКРАЇНА arcs along the upper periphery in Cyrillic characters. The denomination 200 ГРИВЕНЬ is inscribed in two lines across the lower portion of the field, with a decorative beaded inner border encircling the central design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, finely modelled bust of the Ukrainian national poet Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko facing slightly left, with a prominent bald head and characteristic drooping moustache. To the upper right of the portrait, a genre scene depicts two seated figures — a kobzar playing a bandura and a standing companion — before a traditional thatched Ukrainian cottage with poplar trees, evoking the pastoral imagery central to Shevchenko's literary and artistic legacy. Shevchenko's facsimile signature appears in the lower left field. The legend Т.Г.ШЕВЧЕНКО · 1814 · 1861 · arcs along the upper border, and the gold fineness and weight indication Au 900 15,55 is inscribed at the lower right. |
