Reverse description The reverse presents a panoramic view of Prague rendered in the style of old engravings, principally drawn from the Nuremberg Chronicle (Schedel's World Chronicle, late fifteenth century), conveying a detailed medieval cityscape in antique aesthetic. Fragments of architectural engravings by Francisk Skorina appear at the left and right margins of the composition, integrating the theme of early Ruthenian printing culture with the city's imagery. In the lower portion of the field, the inscription ПРАГА designates the city of Prague in Belarusian. Above the central cityscape, a depiction of the Prague Astronomical Clock is featured, surmounted by the circular legend ШЛЯХ СКАРЫНЫ, meaning Skorina's Way, which frames the upper arc of the design.
