Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed naturalistic depiction of a Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) recumbent upon a fallen log, facing left with alert tufted ears and characteristic spotted coat rendered through delicate engraving. Oak branches with acorns are arranged in the lower foreground, while bare winter trees rise to the left. In the upper right field, a vignette of a traditional Russian Orthodox wooden church complex with onion domes and log construction is depicted, evoking the natural and cultural heritage of the Russian north. The Cyrillic legend 'СОХРАНИМ НАШ МИР' (Protect Our World) arcs around the upper periphery in a stylized script, referencing the conservation theme of the series. The composition is executed against a deeply mirrored proof field, creating strong contrast with the frosted devices.
