| Obverse description | The obverse depicts the Kyrenia ship, an ancient Greek merchant vessel dating to the fourth century BC, rendered in profile at centre, serving as an enduring symbol of Cyprus's maritime heritage and its historical role as a crossroads of Mediterranean trade. The bilingual legend ΚΥΠΡΟΣ·KIBRIS, inscribed in Greek and Latin script respectively, flanks the design, with the year of issue appearing between the two name forms. The national designations reflect Cyprus's dual Hellenic and Turkish Cypriot cultural identity as mandated by the coin's design specification. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents the common euro cent design by Luc Luycx, featuring a cartographic representation of Europe in relief against a finely lined background, with the continent depicted without internal borders to symbolise European unity. The large numeral 50 appears prominently to the left of the map, with the denomination inscription EURO CENT arranged vertically to the right. Twelve five-pointed stars, referencing the flag of the European Union, are positioned along the lower arc of the coin's field. The initials LL, denoting engraver Luc Luycx, appear discreetly within the design. |
