背面描述	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.

附加信息	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.
