Along the upper edge is the name of the battleship in Latin: 'S.M.S. VIRIBUS UNITIS' (His Majesty's Ship Viribus Unitis). Below, the country name in German in two lines: 'REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH' (Republic of Austria) and the inscription '20 EURO'. On the right side of the deck is the year of minting '2006'.

Depicted: on the left, a ship viewed from the bow with its guns trained to port; above, a biplane flying over the smoke; on the right, the conning tower of a submarine emerges from the water, with two figures standing on it and the Austrian flag flying from the antenna. At the top and right is the inscription in German: 'K. u. K. KRIEGSMARINE' (Imperial and Royal Navy).
