Obverse description The copper-nickel centre features a stork in full flight, depicted in left profile with wings fully extended, symbolising the westward incorporation of Prekmurje into the Slovenian homeland. Interwoven with the figural motif is a quotation from Jožef Klekl the Elder, drawn from the 17 August 1919 edition of the local newspaper Novine, rendered in the Prekmurje dialect. The legend arcs around and through the central design, reading 'DECE STE LÜBLENE SLOVANSKE MATERE' above and 'PRIKLUČITEV PREKMURJA K MATIČNI DOMOVINI' in the field, with the date '2019' at the lower portion of the centre. The nickel silver outer ring is plain and unadorned, providing a sharp contrast to the darker toned centre. The design was executed by Matej Ramšak, with the stork serving as the pre-eminent regional symbol of Prekmurje and a motif of rebirth and protection.

Reverse description The reverse features a bimetallic composition with the copper-nickel centre displaying the numeral '3' prominently in the upper field above the denomination 'EURO' in large capital letters. Beneath the denomination, the issuer's name 'SLOVENIJA' is inscribed, followed by the date '2019' at the lower centre of the inner disc. The design is austere and typographic in character, with no additional decorative elements in the centre field. The plain nickel silver outer ring frames the central motif cleanly, consistent with Slovenia's standard commemorative 3-euro reverse format.
