| Reverse description | A detailed naval battle scene occupying the lower two-thirds of the field, depicting multiple sailing warships of early 18th-century design engaged at the Battle of Gangut. An oval portrait medallion of Peter I in contemporary dress is superimposed in the upper centre of the composition, with his name 'ПЕТР I' inscribed below the portrait. The curved legend 'ВЕЛИКАЯ СЕВЕРНАЯ ВОЙНА 1700–1721 ГОДОВ' (Great Northern War 1700–1721) arcs along the upper rim in Cyrillic script. Three lines of inscription in the lower exergue read 'ГАНГУТСКОЕ СРАЖЕНИЕ / 27 ИЮЛЯ (7 АВГУСТА) / 1714 ГОДА', recording the date of the battle in both Old Style and New Style calendars. |
