The portrait is the Ian Rank-Broadley likeness, showing the Queen in a draped décolletage. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left periphery and COOK ISLANDS along the upper right periphery, both in raised capital letters. The denomination 5 DOLLARS appears in the lower field beneath the truncation. The coin bears a distinctive antiqued finish accentuating the fine sculptural detail of the portrait.

The Cyrillic legend ДЕНЬ БАНКІВСЬКИХ ПРАЦІВНИКІВ (Day of Banking Workers) arcs along the upper periphery. The date 20 ТРАВНЯ (20 May) appears in the lower field, with the year 2009 inscribed in the exergue.
