The coin's periphery reads "CENTRAL BANK OF SRI LANKA" in Tamil, Sinhala, and English, with the CBSL crest in color and "1950-2010" at its center. A numbered, trilingual certificate of authenticity is included.

An artistic Banyan tree symbolizing Sri Lanka's economy, with "Growth and Stability" above and "Sri Lanka" below in three languages along the periphery. The year 2010 is near the roots. The face value "5000" and "Rupees" in three languages are at the bottom.
