| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Sheikh Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa, Emir of the State of Bahrain, rendered in high relief by engraver Michael Rizzello. The portrait occupies the central field with fine sculptural detail in the facial features and traditional dress. A circular legend in Arabic script arcs around the upper portion of the coin, reading the Emir's full title and name, while a corresponding English legend appears along the lower periphery. Both inscriptions identify the subject as His Highness Sheikh Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa, Emir of the State of Bahrain. |

| Reverse description | A detailed three-quarter aerial perspective view of the United Nations Headquarters complex in New York dominates the central field, prominently featuring the tall Secretariat Building flanked by the lower General Assembly and conference buildings. To the right of the architectural rendering, the commemorative 50th anniversary logotype of the United Nations — comprising the numeral '50' incorporating the UN emblem of a world map framed by olive branches — is rendered in bold relief. The legend 'NATIONS UNITED FOR PEACE' arcs around the upper periphery, while the inscription 'UNITED NATIONS HEADQUARTERS NEW YORK' appears in the right field. Along the lower exergue, the founding year '1945', denomination '5 DINARS', and issue year '1995' are inscribed, marking the golden jubilee of the United Nations. |
