Reverse description The reverse depicts two European beavers (Castor fiber) engaged in constructing a dam from branches, set against a textured water surface rendered in high relief. The naturalistic scene is framed by a raised rim bearing inscriptions along the upper arc: СОХРАНИМ НАШ (Protect Our), and along the lower arc: МИР (World). The composition emphasises the industrious behaviour of the animals in their natural habitat, consistent with the wildlife conservation theme of the series.
