| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Imperial Russian double-headed eagle, crowned with a large central crown surmounted by a cross finial, is displayed prominently in the centre of the field. The eagle bears on its breast a central shield depicting St. George slaying the dragon, surrounded by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew. The right talon holds an orb and cross, while the left talon clutches a sceptre. The wings are spread wide and adorned with six subsidiary armorial shields representing various Russian territories. The composition fills nearly the entire field in high relief against a darkened background. |

Part of the Bank of Russia's long-running commemorative restrike program, this piece reproduces the design of the coronation rouble issued in 1856 marking Alexander II's accession following Nicholas I's death during the Crimean War. Alexander's reign would open with the humiliation of the Paris Peace Treaty and end with his assassination by a Narodnaya Volya bomb on the Catherine Canal embankment in 1881 — a reign bracketed by two of the nineteenth century's more dramatic political ruptures.
The gold-plated steel format places it firmly outside numismatic currency and into souvenir territory, a format the Bank of Russia deployed extensively in the late 2000s for historical series.
