Obverse description	The obverse features the Mongolian national emblem — the Soyombo symbol — prominently displayed within an ornate cartouche at center, beneath which appears a decorative foliate branch. The cursive Cyrillic legend 'Монгол Банк' (Bank of Mongolia) arcs across the middle of the field, flanked on either side by traditional Mongolian script. The denomination '500' and the value inscription 'TUGRIG' appear in the lower field, with the country name 'MONGOLIA' and the specifications '25gr 925 SILVER 1996' inscribed along the lower rim. The design is rendered against a deeply mirrored proof field with frosted devices, creating a strong cameo contrast.

Reverse description	The reverse depicts a Przewalski's wild horse (Equus ferus) in full gallop to the right, rendered in vivid polychrome color printing against a frosted silver background featuring a stylized rocky steppe landscape. The horse is shown with a chestnut-brown coat, short erect mane, and prominent musculature, conveying strength and freedom. The Latin binomial legend 'EQUUS FERUS' is inscribed in arched form along the upper right field. The issue date '1996' appears in the lower exergue. The highly polished mirrored field provides a striking cameo contrast to the colorized central motif.
