| Obverse description | Central device depicts a highly detailed frontal elevation of That Luang (Pha That Luang), the great golden stupa of Vientiane and national symbol of Laos, rendered in fine relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The monument is shown with its characteristic multi-tiered base, ornamental spires, and elaborately decorated entrance gate flanked by lamp standards and floral offerings. The curved legend BANK OF THE LAO PDR arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 500 KIP is inscribed in large characters along the lower border. The metallic specifications 20g and Ag 999 appear in the left and right fields respectively, and a continuous beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Reverse description | Central device features a boldly stylised tiger (Panthera tigris) depicted in a prowling, forward-crouching posture with head raised and jaws open in a snarl, rendered in a graphic linear style with strong contrasting striped patterning against the mirror-polished proof field. Behind and beneath the animal, large stylised numerals suggesting the figure '3' appear in low relief, possibly referencing a series or thematic number. To the left of the tiger's body appears the mint or series logo — a stylised 'f15' monogram — accompanied by the date 2020 beneath it. The legend PANTHERA TIGRIS • 999 SILVER arcs along the upper periphery. The design is executed in a contemporary illustrative engraving style with no beaded border. |
