| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Azerbaijan occupies the right-center of the field, depicting an eight-pointed star encircling a flame motif, supported at the base by a wreath of oak and wheat branches. To the left, a large stylized crescent moon rendered in geometric Art Deco-inspired linear patterning fills the field. Two small eight-pointed star ornaments flank the lower border. The legend 'AZƏRBAYCAN RESPUBLİKASI' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, while the denomination '5 MANAT' is inscribed along the lower border. |

| Additional information |
Azerbaijan hosted the 2015 European Games in Baku — the first edition of what was conceived as a continental equivalent to the Pan American Games — and the national mint program surrounding the event was extensive. Rhythmic gymnastics carried particular political weight for the host nation: Azerbaijan's women's team had dominated the discipline at World Championships through the early 2010s, making it a source of genuine national pride rather than a token sport inclusion.
