| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts two sailing vessels at sea rendered in contrasting scales and styles. A large, full-rigged tall ship with all sails set dominates the left and centre of the field, shown underway on a choppy sea with waves visible in the lower field. To the right, a smaller schematic representation of a four-masted barque — identifiable as the training ship Sedov — is depicted in a more stylised, outline form. Below this secondary vessel, the Cyrillic legend 'СЕДОВ' is inscribed in bold characters, identifying the famous Russian sailing ship. The overall composition conveys a sense of maritime grandeur appropriate to the commemorative subject. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Georgy Sedov's 1912 Arctic expedition was privately funded after the Imperial Russian government refused to back it — the Navy dismissed him as underqualified, and the scientific establishment was openly hostile. He died on the ice in February 1914, roughly 180 miles from the Pole, while his frostbitten crew dragged him on a sledge toward Franz Josef Land.
Belarus issuing this commemorative is a geographic curiosity: Sedov was born in what is now Ukraine, sailed under the Russian imperial flag, and has no particular connection to Belarusian territory.
