| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Trinidad and Tobago occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield displaying two hummingbirds and a sailing ship, surmounted by a helmet and a palm tree crest. Two scarlet ibises serve as supporters flanking the shield, standing upon a grassy mount. A scroll below bears the national motto in two parts. The legend TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO arcs along the upper periphery, while the date appears at the bottom of the field; on Franklin Mint issues, the FM mintmark is present just above the date. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a naturalistic rendering of a chaconia (Warszewiczia coccinea) branch, the national flower of Trinidad and Tobago, with broad ovate leaves and pendant clusters of blossoms filling the upper and right portions of the field. The denomination numeral 25 is prominently displayed in the lower centre of the field in large serif figures, with the word CENTS inscribed in smaller capitals immediately below. The design is uncluttered, allowing the botanical motif to serve as the primary decorative element against a smooth background. |
