Reverse description The reverse features a prominent cruciform composition depicting Prince Volodymyr the Great (Volodymyr the Baptist) in the foreground, rendered in high relief against a detailed background scene showing the mass baptism of the Kyivan Rus people in the Dnipro River. The central figure of the Prince is shown in regal attire with a cross, evoking the historic Christianization of Rus in 988 AD. The inscription ХРЕЩЕННЯ РУСІ arcs across the upper portion of the field in Cyrillic lettering.
