| Obverse description | The obverse features the national emblem of the Republic of Belarus positioned at the top of the field, flanked by the legend РЭСПУБЛIКА БЕЛАРУСЬ arcing along the upper periphery. At the center, an ornate decorative medallion depicts a radiant sun overlapping a crescent moon, set within an elaborate foliate and scrollwork surround with stylized stars and floral motifs occupying the four quadrants. The denomination 1 РУБЕЛЬ and the date 2015 appear in the lower portion of the field, separated by a central dot. The entire design is rendered in antique finish, lending the coin a rich, darkened relief characteristic of the oxidized copper-nickel flan. |

| Additional information |
Part of Belarus's "Signs of the Zodiac" series, this rouble was issued as a collector piece rather than for general circulation — the National Bank of Belarus ran a sustained program of themed commemorative copper-nickel issues throughout the 2010s aimed squarely at the domestic collector market. Oxidized copper-nickel gives the finished coin a darkened, antiqued surface that standard planchets lack.
