| Obverse description | Stylized bare-headed effigy of King Willem-Alexander in right-facing profile, rendered as a smooth sculptural silhouette set against an intricate crosshatch grid pattern evoking cartographic or polder drainage networks, which fills the entire field. The royal portrait occupies the central and left portions of the coin, its clean contours contrasting with the geometric background. The circular legend reads WILLEM-ALEXANDER KONING DER NEDERLANDEN, disposed around the upper and lower periphery, with a small mintmaster privy mark visible to the right of the bust. |

| Reverse description | A stylized aerial view of the former island of Schokland depicted as a polder landscape, rendered with fine engraved lines suggesting water channels, reclaimed land parcels, and the characteristic outlines of the UNESCO World Heritage site. The composition conveys the horizontal flatness of the Dutch landscape and the historic contours of the island rising above the drained Zuiderzee. The reverse legend, arranged in arched and straight segments around the design, records the denomination, date, and heritage designation. |
