| Obverse description | The obverse vignette presents a panoramic composition of the northern shoreline of Malé, the capital city, blending human figures, palm trees, urban structures, and traditional boats in a unified tableau that traces the nation's growth and development across five decades of independence. The design employs a richly layered underprint with geometric and floral guilloche patterns typical of De La Rue production. The overall composition serves as a visual narrative of socioeconomic progress, framed by inscriptions in both Latin and Thaana scripts. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large central numeral '50' commemorating the Golden Jubilee of Maldivian independence, superimposed over a vignette of the historic signing ceremony of 26 July 1965 through which the Maldives achieved full sovereignty. An intricate interwoven background pattern fills the field, symbolising the nation's distinctive craftsmanship traditions, cultural heritage, and Islamic customs, rendered in a fine-line guilloche execution characteristic of De La Rue polymer security printing. |
