The motif of the coin is the coat of arms of the Duchy of Samogitia.

Occupying the centre of the inner circle is a bear on a shield and to the left of the bear is a knight bearing a sword and to the right of the bear is a woman resting on an anchor.

Under the shield is the Latin phrase "PATRIA UNA" which means one fatherland.
