| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago occupies the central field, depicting a shield quartered with sailing vessels and a golden helm surmounted by a ship's wheel above, flanked by two supporting birds — an ibis to the left and a scarlet macaw to the right — both standing on a rocky base amid waves. A scroll beneath the supporters bears the national motto in two parts: TOGETHER WE ASPIRE and TOGETHER WE ACHIEVE. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO arcs along the upper periphery, while the date appears prominently in the lower field. |

| Reverse description | A group of steel pan drums — the national instrument of Trinidad and Tobago, fashioned from repurposed oil barrels — is depicted in high relief occupying the right and lower portions of the field. The arrangement includes both tenor pans and bass pans of varying sizes, with a pair of hands shown playing one of the pans with mallets, conveying the instrument's living musical tradition. The denomination numeral 50 appears in large bold figures to the left, with the word CENTS inscribed below it in smaller capital letters. |
