| Obverse description | Diamond-plate deck texture fills the field of this oval gilt-brass coin. At center, the two-part ship's crest of USS Truxtun is displayed in color enamel: the upper shield depicts a sailing vessel over blue waves flanked by five stars and crossed naval implements, while the lower shield bears crossed weapons, an anchor, and a trident in red, white, and blue enamel with a banner below. Rectangular cartouches at left and right bear the hull classification 'DDG' and hull number '103' respectively, with the ship's name arching along the upper border. |

| Reverse description | The field depicts a photographic-style engraved broadside view of the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Truxtun (DDG-103) underway at sea, with hull number '103' visible on the bow. To the right, a large color-enamel cartoon penguin mascot — rendered in black, white, and yellow — stands with arms crossed, dominating the right half of the field. No legends appear on this face. |
