Obverse description The Small Coat of Arms of Ukraine appears at the top of the field, with the legend УКРАЇНА / 5 ГРИВЕНЬ / 2014 inscribed below it. At center, four lines of verse by the Ukrainian poet Pavlo Tychyna are rendered in Cyrillic: Я ЄСТЬ НАРОД, / ЯКОГО ПРАВДИ СИЛА / НІКИМ ЗВОЙОВАНА ЩЕ НЕ БУЛА. / ЯКА БІДА МЕНЕ, / ЯКА ЧУМА КОСИЛА! - / А СИЛА ЗНОВУ РОЗЦВІЛА… / ПАВЛО ТИЧИНА, translating as 'I am the people whose power of truth has not been conquered by anyone; despite all plagues, the power blossomed again.' To the right of the verse, a polychrome pad-printed bouquet of wild cornflowers, ears of wheat, and poppies lends decorative color to the design. The logotype of the National Bank of Ukraine Mint appears on the obverse field.

Reverse description The reverse features a stylized allegorical composition of two female figures at right, set against a map of Ukraine in the field, symbolizing sorrow and joy in reference to the wartime experience. To the left, two commemorative dates are inscribed: 22 ЧЕРВНЯ 1941 (22 June 1941, the date of the Nazi invasion) and 28 ЖОВТНЯ 1944 (28 October 1944, the date of Ukraine's complete liberation). Below the central composition, a four-line legend reads ВИЗВОЛЕННЯ / УКРАЇНИ / ВІД ФАШИСТСЬКИХ / ЗАГАРБНИКІВ, meaning 'Liberation of Ukraine from Fascist Invaders.' The overall design commemorates the 70th anniversary of Ukraine's liberation from Nazi occupation during World War II.
