Traditional Mongolian vertical script occupies the right portion of the field. The circular legend 'OLYMPIC GAMES 2008' arcs along the upper rim, while 'MONGOLIAN CHAMPIONS' arcs along the lower rim, separated by two raised bullet points. |

| Additional information |
The "Serdamba" name on this issue refers to a traditional Mongolian ornamental motif rooted in Buddhist decorative arts, part of a broader series the Bank of Mongolia produced in the mid-to-late 2000s pairing national silver collectibles with cultural and natural heritage themes. Mongolia's commemorative coinage program expanded sharply after 2000, largely driven by export demand from the international numismatic market rather than domestic circulation needs.
