| Reverse description | The central field features a finely detailed naturalistic depiction of the Azov-Black Sea Shemaya (Alburnus chalcoides), rendered in high relief with careful attention to scale texture and fin articulation. In the background, a sailing vessel appears at mid-distance on stylised waves, accompanied by birds in flight, providing a sense of the species' aquatic habitat. The upper rim bears the curved Cyrillic legend АЗОВО-ЧЕРНОМОРСКАЯ ШЕМАЯ (Shemaya of the Azov and Black Sea), following the contour of the coin. The overall composition is executed in proof finish, characteristic of the Bank of Russia's Red Book Animals commemorative series. |
