| Obverse description | At centre, the official emblem of the Bank of Russia — a double-headed eagle with wings lowered — is depicted within a beaded inner circle. A curved legend «БАНК РОССИИ» (BANK OF RUSSIA) arcs below the eagle. The outer legend along the upper rim reads «СТО РУБЛЕЙ» (ONE HUNDRED ROUBLES), while the date «2005» appears at the lower rim. To the left in the field, the metal designation and fineness «Ag 925» are inscribed; to the right, the fine metal content «1 КГ» and the Saint Petersburg Mint mark «СПМД» complete the peripheral lettering. |

| Reverse description | The central motif is contained within a polished oval cartouche depicting a dynamic cavalry battle scene: a host of Russian warriors charges from the left with swords drawn beneath a waving gonfalon bearing the image of the Saviour, while Golden Horde horsemen advance from the right with bows raised and arrows in flight, flanked by two yurts; a large tree occupies the left background. The upper arc of the coin's disc is adorned with stylized celestial imagery — sun, moon, and stars — while the matted surrounding field bears a heavenly host above and three stylized birds and three wolves with open jaws below. In the lower exergue, a four-line inscription within a cartouche reads «625 ЛЕТИЕ КУЛИКОВСКОЙ БИТВЫ» (THE 625TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BATTLE ON KULIKOVO FIELD), flanked to the left by a shield and sword and to the right by a bow and quiver of arrows. The overall composition blends high-relief sculptural work with contrasting polished and matted surfaces in a rich narrative style. |
