| Obverse description | Within the bimetallic core, the numeral '25' dominates the central field, its outline incorporating a stylised marten in right profile with the animal's body integrated into the letterforms. The ring surface is divided into twenty-five squares evoking the chequered coat of arms of the Republic of Croatia. Twenty-five small circles are arranged along the inner edge of the ring, symbolising twenty-five years since the kuna's introduction. The circular legend 'OBLJETNICA UVOĐENJA KUNE' is inscribed in the upper arc of the ring, while the dates '30. 5. 1994. – 30. 5. 2019.' appear in the lower arc. |

| Additional information |
Croatia introduced the kuna on May 30, 1994, replacing the Croatian dinar that had itself only been in use since 1991 following independence from Yugoslavia. This commemorative marks exactly 25 years of that currency — which turned out to be nearly its entire lifespan, as Croatia adopted the euro on January 1, 2023, retiring the kuna altogether after less than three decades of circulation.
