| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed rendering of St. Michael's Golden-Domed Cathedral as its central motif, with the silhouettes of twelve apostles arranged in the foreground, referencing the celebrated Eucharist mosaic of the original 12th-century structure. The figures are rendered in a stylized manner evoking Byzantine iconographic tradition. A circular legend enclosing the design reads МИХАЙЛІВСЬКИЙ ЗОЛОТОВЕРХИЙ СОБОР XII СТ., identifying the monument and its historical dating. The composition balances architectural grandeur with figural symbolism to commemorate the cathedral's cultural and spiritual significance. |
