The obverse of the coin features a stylized composition symbolizing the pedagogical and educational activities of Olena Pchilka. In the center of the composition are six flower pots, stylized as elements of the snake ornament. This is not just a detail, but a symbol of the writer's six children, raised in the spirit of Ukrainian traditions. Their location resembles the merlons of a defensive wall, emphasizing the unshakable "fortress of Ukrainian identity", which has resisted hostile influences for centuries. On the right, between the stylized pots, there is the logo of the Banknote and Mint of the National Bank of Ukraine, and in the lower part of the coin is engraved the inscription UKRAINE, denomination 2 with the graphic symbol of the hryvnia, the small State Coat of Arms of Ukraine and the year of minting - 20 / 24.
On the reverse of the coin, a stylized portrait of Olena Pchilka is depicted on a mirror background. The image of a woman on the background, the outline of which resembles a crown, impresses with its deep, wise and determined look. It seems to permeate time, reminding of the eternal meaning of her works. To the left and to the right of the portrait are the inscriptions OLENA PCHILKA and OLGA KOSACH, and below in a semicircle - "QUEEN MOTHER", because that is how Lesya Ukrainka affectionately called her mother. The years of the poetess's life 1849 / 1930 complete the composition of the reverse.
Dedicated to one of the brightest figures in Ukrainian history and culture - Olena Pchiltsa. Olga Petrivna Kosach (that's her real name) was a legendary poetess, translator, scientist, folklorist, ethnographer, publisher and active public figure. Her life was full of tireless work for the benefit of the Ukrainian people: from collecting treasures of Ukrainian folklore and raising a genius generation to fighting for the right of Ukrainians to speak and write in their native language. The creative legacy of Olena Pchilka is still relevant, and her name is a symbol of a Ukrainian woman who combines a high intellectual culture, patriotism and boundless love for Ukraine.
