| Obverse description | The face value '500' is rendered prominently in the centre-left field, with the two zeros cleverly replaced by a stylised football and a globe respectively, symbolising the international scope of the tournament. Below the numeral, the denomination legend 'FORINT' appears in the lower centre field. The mint mark 'BP.' and date '1986', along with the engraver's initials 'FM', are inscribed beneath the central design. The curved legend 'MAGYAR' arches across the upper field and 'NÉPKÖZTÁRSASÁG' curves along the lower field, together reading 'Hungarian People's Republic'. |

| Reverse description | A detailed bird's-eye view of a large football stadium occupies the central field, rendered with fine engraving showing tiered seating, the playing pitch with centre circle and penalty areas clearly delineated. Above the stadium, within a polished cartouche set against a sunburst background, the inscription 'MEXIKÓ · 1986' identifies the host country and year. The engraver's initials 'FM' appear in the lower centre field above the curved legend. The inscription 'LABDARÚGÓ VILÁGBAJNOKSÁG', meaning 'Football World Cup', curves along the lower portion of the coin in two lines. |
