The obverse of the coin is divided into four sectors by lines forming a cross — a sacred symbol that represents the unity of existence, combining heaven and earth. Each sector represents the pysanka art of Polissia and contains ornaments characteristic of this region: Rivne region (bottom left): waves, net, and rake-like patterns; Volyn (top left): a fragment of a star, dots, rake-like patterns, sun, and waves; Zhytomyr region (top right): rake-like patterns and sun; Kyiv region (bottom right): spirals and net. Each ornamental element has a deep symbolic meaning: the sun and star embody light, life-giving energy, development, and prosperity; waves symbolize water, longevity, and fertility; spirals are a sign of infinity, protection from evil spirits, and the eternal flow of life; the net represents the connection between worlds; rake-like patterns are an archaic symbol of rain; dots represent зерно (grain), symbolizing the birth of new life and continuation of the lineage. In the upper right part of the composition, the following are inscribed: the word "UKRAINE", the year of minting — 2026, the Small State Coat of Arms of Ukraine, the denomination 10, and the hryvnia symbol.

The reverse of the coin features a pysanka with a traditional ornament of the Chernihiv region (Polissia) — the ruzha (star). It symbolizes the sun, fire, and light, embodying life, well-being, energy, and the spring awakening of nature. The symbolism of the reverse motif is complemented by colors: red — a symbol of strength, health, and energy, traditionally considered a powerful talisman; black — a symbol of the earth, fertility, ancestral memory, and protection.
