| Obverse description | The obverse bears the central emblem of the Central Bank of Mongolia (Mongolbank) at center, surrounded by the denomination and date. The legend reads 'MongolBank' in Latin script, 'ᠮᠤᠩᠭᠤᠯ ᠤᠯᠤᠰ' in traditional Mongolian script, '250 ТӨГРӨГ' in Cyrillic, and '2023' denoting the year of issue. To the right of the central emblem, a finely detailed geometric patterned background occupies the field. At the lower portion of the design, the talons of a Saker Falcon gripping a branch are rendered in high relief. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatically composed, ultra-high relief double portrait of a Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug): a large, forward-facing head dominates the left and center of the field, rendered with extraordinary feather detail, a boldly hooked beak, and piercing eyes. Overlapping and slightly recessed to the right is a side-profile view of a second falcon head, set against a richly textured background evoking rocky or foliated terrain. The composition fills the entire coin face to the rim, with no legend or inscription, allowing the naturalistic artistry to command the design. The interplay of depth between the two falcon portraits creates a striking three-dimensional effect characteristic of CIT's ultra-high relief minting technique. |
