Reverse description The reverse features stylized portrait effigies of Ivan Fedorov, the pioneering East Slavic printer, and Prince Kostiantyn Ostrozkyi, both depicted holding an opened book in a conventionalized Renaissance-influenced composition. The arc legend ОСТРОЗЬКА БІБЛІЯ (The Ostroh Bible) appears above the figures, while the date 1581, referencing the year of the Bible's publication, is inscribed in the lower field. The overall design evokes the historical and cultural significance of the Ostroh Bible as the first complete printed Bible in Church Slavonic.
