| Reverse description | The reverse presents a schematic representation of the Struve Geodetic Arc rendered as a dashed curved line spanning the field from top to bottom, flanked on the right by a chain of triangulation triangles illustrating the surveying methodology employed along the arc. To the left of centre, a geometric diagram depicts a circle with inscribed angular elements labelled 'R', 'O', and 'φ', symbolising the geodetic measurement principles. Key data inscribed in the central field include the number of triangulation points (265 primary, 258 secondary), the longitude (E 25° 20'), the northern and southern terminal latitudes (N 70° 40' 11'' and N 45° 20' 03''), and the total arc length (2822 km). Along the right margin, the names of the ten countries through which the arc passes are listed in their respective national languages: Norge, Sverige, Suomi, Россия, Eesti, Latvia, Lietuva, Беларусь, Moldova, and Україна. The legend 'STRUVĖS GEODEZINIS LANKAS' (Struve Geodetic Arc) curves along the left and lower periphery. |
