| Reverse description | The large numeral '13' dominates the central field, with the denomination legend 'КОПЕЕК' inscribed beneath in bold relief. The date '1924' appears prominently in large numerals at the bottom of the field. Two sprays of oak and wheat flank the central design on either side, framing the denomination. The curved legend '★ БАНК СВЕРДЛОВСКА ★' arcs along the upper periphery between two five-pointed stars, evoking the style of early Soviet coinage. The overall design is executed in antique silver finish with a milled edge. |

| Additional information |
The Bank of Sverdlovsk never existed. Sverdlovsk was the Soviet-era name for Yekaterinburg, renamed in 1991 — the same year the USSR collapsed — and no regional bank of that name issued circulating coinage under the Russian Federation. This piece belongs to a well-documented category of fantasy issues produced for the souvenir and collector market, with no legal tender status, no issuing authority, and no monetary history worth tracing.
