| Obverse description | The copper-nickel centre features the State Coat of Arms of the Republic of Belarus — a sun rising over a globe flanked by wheat ears entwined with clover and flax blossoms, surmounted by a five-pointed star, with a ribbon in the national colours at the base and the inscription РЭСПУБЛІКА БЕЛАРУСЬ on a scroll. The brass outer ring bears the country name БЕЛАРУСЬ arching across the upper field and the denomination 2 РУБЛІ along the lower arc, with traditional Belarusian ornamental motifs decorating the ring on either side. |

| Additional information |
Belarus introduced a redesigned circulating bimetallic rouble series in 2016 following a currency redenomination that lopped four zeros off the old ruble — the country's second such redenomination since independence. The wildlife-themed reverses, of which the wolf is one, were part of a deliberate effort to give the new currency a distinct national identity separate from Soviet-era coinage.
KM#712 is a circulating business strike, not a commemorative issue.
