| Beschrijving keerzijde | To the left of the field, a portrait of the celebrated Russian chess grandmaster Mikhail Ivanovich Chigorin is depicted in profile or three-quarter view, rendered in fine relief befitting a commemorative proof issue. Beneath the portrait, a ribbon cartouche carries the inscription М.И.ЧИГОРИН (M.I. Chigorin) in Cyrillic characters. To the right, a detailed chessboard with chess pieces arranged in play is shown, evoking Chigorin's legacy as a pioneering figure in 19th-century chess theory. The birth and death years 1850 and 1908 appear in two lines at the lower portion of the reverse field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mikhail Chigorin was the dominant Russian chess player of the late 19th century and twice challenged Wilhelm Steinitz for the world championship — losing both matches, in 1889 and 1892, the second by a single game. This coin was issued as part of the Bank of Russia's long-running commemorative series honoring outstanding figures in Russian culture and science. Chigorin is credited with founding the Russian chess school, a positional and combinative tradition that would later produce Botvinnik, Tal, and Karpov.
