| Obverse description | The obverse features a stylized, modernist composition of multiple overlapping portrait silhouettes arranged in a swirling, pinwheel formation across the entire field, evoking a sense of motion and identity. The abstract design, rendered in incuse line work, represents the faces of the Dutch people in a dynamic artistic style. The circular legend along the periphery reads 'WILLEM-ALEXANDER KONING DER NEDERLANDEN', identifying the reigning monarch as the issuing authority. |

| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Suzan Drummen and Monique Wijbrands, presents a densely populated, dynamic scene of stylized athletic figures in motion, radiating outward from the centre of the field in a circular composition celebrating the legacy of Dutch sprinting legend Fanny Blankers-Koen. A fine graduated border of tick marks frames the outer edge of the design, lending a technical precision to the composition. The denomination '€ 5' appears in the central field, while the legend 'FANNY BLANKERS-KOEN' and the date '2018' are inscribed along the periphery. |
