Two helmeted athletes in full athletic attire are shown in the act of pushing and boarding a two-man bobsled on a track, rendered in high relief against a mirrored proof field with stylized track barriers visible in the background. The legend 'OLYMPIC GAMES' arcs across the upper field, with '1994' positioned below it at center. The denomination '500 WON' appears in two lines along the lower rim.
