Obverse description Central field features a large faceted diamond gem in high relief, with radiating light lines emanating from its crown. Flanking the base of the diamond are two shield-shaped cartouches bearing the founding year 1896 at left and the jubilee year 1971 at right. Small diamond lozenge ornaments appear at each side of the inner legend border. The circular legend reads DIAMOND JUBILEE at top and THIEF RIVER FALLS, MINN. at bottom, with the Osborne Coinage mintmark visible at the base of the field.

Reverse description The reverse presents a detailed panoramic collage of Thief River Falls landmarks and historical scenes arranged around a sinuous river course that winds through the field. Depicted vignettes include industrial buildings with smokestacks, a riverboat on water, churches with steeples, commercial streetscapes, residential structures, agricultural scenes, and a locomotive, all rendered in fine relief against a brushed background with no legend.
