| Obverse description | The obverse presents a striking modernist sculptural composition depicting a procession of stylized warrior figures rendered in high relief, receding in perspective from the foreground to the upper right of the field, evoking a marching formation of Latvian freedom fighters. The figures are abstracted and angular in form, conveying both strength and forward motion. The legend BRĪVĪBAS CĪŅAS arcs along the upper portion of the field, while LATVIJA and the date range 1918–1920 are inscribed along the lower right, all in Latin script. The design occupies the majority of the coin's face, with a polished proof field providing strong contrast to the frosted relief. The overall artistic style reflects constructivist influences appropriate to the historical subject matter. |
