| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed relief depiction of a Scythian horseman in profile, derived from the celebrated golden plaque discovered in 1830 during archaeological excavations of the Kul-Oba burial mound near the city of Kerch. The horseman is rendered in the distinctive Scythian artistic style, with intricate ornamental detail on the figure and horse. The inscription СКІФСЬКЕ ЗОЛОТО (Scythian Gold) arcs along the upper portion of the field within the coin's rim. |
