| Obverse description | The upper field bears the date 2023 above the legend УКРАЇНА, beneath which a stylized outline map of Ukraine spans the field. The central composition features a polished field flanked by relief depictions of shipyard cranes, a warship on stylized waves, and a tall monument with a trident finial, evoking Mykolaiv's identity as a shipbuilding city and seaport; to the lower right is the facade of the Mykolaiv Shipbuilding Museum. A two-line poetic quotation from Lina Kostenko in italic script occupies the right-center field, with the author's name below, and Ukraine's small coat of arms appears at the bottom center. |

| Reverse description | The field is divided horizontally by the bold legend МИКОЛАЇВ above the smaller legend МІСТО ГЕРОЇВ, rendered against a polished band. The upper half depicts war-damaged buildings, bare trees, and crumbling structures symbolizing the city's resilience under Russian occupation, with a sailing ship atop a tall spire at right. The lower half presents a detailed panoramic cityscape in perspective relief, featuring historic religious and civic architecture, a domed cathedral, a classical colonnade building, ancient amphorae, and wheat ears referencing the city's archaeological and agricultural heritage. |
