Obverse description The bimetallic obverse features the full national coat of arms of Panama centered within the nickel brass plated steel inner disc, displaying the quartered shield with a cornucopia, tools, crossed swords, and a sailing ship, surmounted by a harpy eagle with outstretched wings above a ribbon. Ten stars arc above the shield within the central disc. The encircling nickel plated steel outer ring bears the legend REPÚBLICA DE PANAMÁ along the upper arc and UN BALBOA along the lower arc, all in raised Latin lettering. The motto PRO MUNDI BENEFICIO appears on the scroll across the shield. The overall rendering is detailed and heraldically faithful to the official arms.

Reverse description The reverse displays the colored official logo of World Youth Day Panama 2019, designed by Ambar Calvo, a student at the University of Panama, selected through a contest convened by Pope Francis. At the center of the polychrome logo stands a stylized figure of the Virgin Mary, her five-pointed crown symbolizing the five continents sending pilgrims to the event. The silhouette of the Panamanian Isthmus and the Panama Canal are integrated into the composition, representing both the host nation and the pilgrim's spiritual journey toward Christ through Mary. The legend JORNADA MUNDIAL DE LA JUVENTUD arcs along the upper field, with PANAMÁ 2019 inscribed in the lower field of the outer ring.
