Obverse description The two-headed eagle emblem of the Bank of Russia, with wings lowered, occupies the central field and is encircled by a ring of beads. The upper legend reads 'ДВА РУБЛЯ' (TWO ROUBLES) and the lower arc bears the inscription 'БАНК РОССИИ' (BANK OF RUSSIA). Along the lower rim, separated by a dot, appear the precious metal designation and fineness 'Ag 925', the year of issue '2011 г.', the fine metal content '15,55', and the Saint Petersburg Mint monogram 'СПМД'.

Reverse description A portrait of the celebrated Soviet actor and satirist Arkady Isaakovich Raykin occupies the central matte field of the disc, rendered in high relief with fine detail. To the left, an inscription curves along the rim reading 'А.И. РАЙКИН' (A.I. RAYKIN). To the right, against the mirror-polished surface of a depicted drop-curtain, two dates appear in separate lines: '1911' and '1987', marking the years of his birth and death. The contrasting matte and proof-mirror surfaces create a distinctive cameo effect characteristic of commemorative issues from the Saint Petersburg Mint.
