| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed botanical study of Cypripedium calceolus, the Lady's Slipper Orchid, depicted as a cluster of flowering plants in high sculptural relief occupying the central and lower field. The plants show multiple blooms with their characteristic inflated pouch-shaped labella and spreading petals and sepals, rendered with precise naturalistic artistry. Rocky ground is suggested at the lower left, lending a natural habitat context to the composition. The Cyrillic legend 'ЗОЗУЛИНІ ЧЕРЕВИЧКИ СПРАВЖНІ' arcs along the upper portion of the field, while the scientific name 'CYPRIPEDIUM CALCEOLUS L.' is inscribed in Latin letters along the lower left margin, following the curve of the coin. |
