    The central part features the lesser coat of arms of the Austrian Empire: a double-headed eagle with spread wings, its heads crowned, above them the Crown of Saint Stephen; in the eagle's right talon are a sword and scepter, in the left an orb; on its chest is the familial heraldic shield of Habsburg-Lorraine, encircled by a chain. Below, the number 20 is within a frame. The frame is flanked on the right by a palm branch and on the left by a laurel branch. Along the edge of the coin are Latin inscriptions in an arc: on the right and left 'HVN∙BOH∙LOMB∙ET VEN∙GAL∙LOD∙IL∙REX∙A∙A∙1827∙' (King of Hungary, Bohemia, Lombardy and Venice, Galicia, Lodomeria, Illyria, Archduke of Austria 1827). The rim is decorated with ornamental dentils.
