Obverse: Profile of Gjergj Kastriot Skanderbeg facing right, on and a glossy silhouette. This is accentuated by the mat background with thin engraved lines. Presented in high relief, the entire section is raised against the surface of the rest of the drawing. On the side of the silhouette profile, the sword and years “1468 -2018” are presented, in gloss on a carved background. On the other half of this design, an olive branch is stylised in front of the perspective of Skanderbeg, on the background, as a symbol of glory. The nominal value “200 LEKË” is written above the portrait of Skanderbeg, and the theme “550 VJET IN MEMORIAM GJERGJ KASTRIOTI SKËNDERBEU” is written on the upper ring.

Reverse: Seal of Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg. The words “SHQIPËRIA - ALBANIA” are written in the arch above the image of the seal. The year “2018” is written below the seal. Three arched lines, in parallel and reduplicated (left and right) “encircle” the form of the seal and of the coin overall.
