Obverse description Central field features a stylised frontal depiction of an owl with wings spread wide, rendered in a bold, geometric artistic style. The bird's circular eyes are prominently detailed at the top of the design. Below the owl, along the lower arc of the coin, appears the denomination legend '5 AUSTRALES' in stylised lettering. The overall composition is stark and modernist, with strong incuse lines defining the owl's wing and body contours against a flat field.

Reverse description Central field displays a highly stylised, geometric sunburst or solar motif composed of a central diamond form surrounded by eight radiating square and rhomboid elements, evoking a compass rose or abstract sun pattern. The design is executed in a bold, angular modernist style with incuse line detailing throughout. Along the lower arc of the coin, the legend reads '·ISLAS MALVINAS· ARGT.' with the date '20 06' incorporated into the inscription. The field is otherwise unadorned, allowing the geometric central device to dominate the composition.
