Obverse description Equestrian effigy of Yuri Dolgorukiy, founder of Moscow, depicted in right profile atop a striding horse, rendered in bold relief upon a raised plinth at the base of the design. The legend 'БАНК НОВЫЙ СИМВОЛ' arcs along the upper periphery of the coin, while '1997 ЛЕТ' appears along the lower field in Cyrillic characters. The composition closely references the well-known Dolgorukiy monument in Moscow, lending the token a quasi-official iconographic character.

Additional information

The 1997 Russian redenomination removed three zeros from all currency values, making this a first-year issue under the reformed ruble — the same ruble that would collapse entirely in the August 1998 financial crisis, wiping out personal savings across the federation for the second time in a decade.
