| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Apollo 13 spacecraft assembly — comprising the service module and lunar module — shown in high relief against the field, with radiating lines indicating an explosion or impact event and the Moon visible in the lower right.

| Reverse description | The central device depicts the Apollo 13 command module splashing down in the ocean beneath three deployed parachutes, the whole composition stylized to evoke the Shell scallop logo. Earth and the Moon flank the scene in the mid-field, connected by orbital lines, and olive branches frame the design on either side. A ribbon banner in the upper field bears the legend APOLLO 13 • 1970, and the issuer name SHELL appears in the lower exergue flanked by the Monnaie de Paris engraver's marks. |
