A harpy eagle with outstretched wings surmounts the shield, clutching a banner bearing the national motto PRO MUNDI BENEFICIO. Nine stars arc above the eagle, and two additional stars flank the shield at mid-field. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE PANAMA arcs along the upper rim, while the denomination 75 BALBOAS is prominently inscribed along the lower rim, with the fineness mark 500/1000 ORO FINO appearing in small text just above it. |

| Reverse description | The Panamanian national flag is depicted unfurled on a flagpole at center, rendered in a stylized, rippling manner with its characteristic quartered design featuring stars. Thirteen five-pointed stars are arranged in a circle around the central motif, recalling the thirteen provinces. Flowering plants, identified as the national flower (the Holy Ghost Orchid), frame the base of the flagpole on either side, adding botanical detail to the composition. The commemorative legend 75° ANIVERSARIO DE LA INDEPENDENCIA arcs along the upper rim, and the date range 1903-1978 is inscribed in the lower field between the floral sprays. |
