| Obverse description | The obverse features the coat of arms of Abkhazia centrally positioned in the field, depicted as a shield bearing a stylized horseman and traditional Abkhazian ornamental devices. The denomination '50 ПСАР' (50 Apsars) is inscribed in large Cyrillic characters along the upper arc, with the fineness designation 'Au 999' appearing vertically along the left rim. The issuer inscription 'АПСНЫ АБАНК' (Bank of Abkhazia) is boldly rendered in Cyrillic across the lower field, above a decorative band of repeated text 'АБАНК АПСНЫ' forming a background pattern. The date '2008' is prominently displayed in the lower central field overlaying the patterned legend band. The coin exhibits a prooflike finish with deeply mirrored fields contrasting against the frosted devices. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold silhouette composition depicting a soldier ascending rocky terrain while triumphantly raising a flag, evoking the Abkhazian victory in the 1992–1993 war. The heroic figural scene occupies the central field and is rendered in a stark, high-contrast matte silhouette style against the polished gold ground. The Abkhazian word 'АИААИРА' (Victory) arcs prominently across the upper field in large Cyrillic lettering. The dates '1992' and '1993' flank the central design along the lower left and right respectively, each separated by a raised star, commemorating the period of the Georgian-Abkhazian conflict. The overall design conveys a strong sense of national pride and military commemoration. |
