| Obverse description | The obverse features a nonagonal geometric framework radiating from a central circle bearing the large numeral '5', dividing the field into nine segments each containing the heraldic shield of one of Austria's nine federal provinces. The shields are rendered in fine relief within their respective compartments, arranged symmetrically around the denomination. The circular legend 'REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH' arcs along the upper rim, while '5 · EURO ·' is inscribed along the lower rim, both in raised Latin lettering following the nonagonal coin shape. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed naturalistic forest scene engraved in high relief, depicting a bellowing red deer stag with prominent antlers as the dominant central figure, set against a backdrop of dense woodland foliage and trees. A pheasant is shown in the left middle ground, while a badger appears prominently in the lower foreground amid grass and undergrowth, evoking the biodiversity of Austrian forests. The legend 'LAND DER WÄLDER' curves along the upper rim in raised Latin lettering, while the date '2011' is positioned in the lower field. The composition reflects a naturalistic artistic style characteristic of contemporary Austrian commemorative coinage. |
