Reverse description The central field features a relief depiction of a ballerina posed in a half-split position, evoking imagery from Pyotr Tchaikovsky's ballet Swan Lake. Below the central figure, a two-line inscription reads БЕЛАРУСКI БАЛЕТ (Belarusian Ballet). An ornamental pattern of stylized feathers runs along the right portion of the rim, framing the composition and reinforcing the ballet theme.

Additional information

Belarus has issued commemorative circulation coins under the National Bank's ongoing cultural series since the early 2000s, with ballet among the recurring subjects — a nod to the Bolshoi Ballet of Belarus in Minsk, which maintained its Soviet-era prestige long after independence. These copper-nickel roubles were intended for circulation but rarely saw it, absorbed almost immediately by collectors and souvenir buyers.
