Reverse description The reverse displays the large numeral '10' prominently in the central field, executed in bold block numerals with wide strokes typical of Soviet industrial token design. The issuer's name АРКТИКУГОЛЬ (Arktikugol) curves along the upper periphery in bold Cyrillic capitals. Below the central numeral, the denomination КОПЕЕК (Kopeks) is inscribed in a straight horizontal legend across the lower field. The design is plain and functional, with no additional ornamental elements, reflecting the token's purely utilitarian purpose as a company scrip currency for Soviet coal mining workers on Spitsbergen.
