| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed botanical illustration of Potentilla rupestris (rock cinquefoil), rendered across a bipartite field of contrasting polished and matte finish halves, creating a striking light-and-dark effect. The plant is depicted twice — once in mirror-image — showing its characteristic pinnate leaves, slender stems, and small five-petalled flowers in precise naturalistic style. The Cyrillic inscription ДУБРОЎКА СКАЛЬНАЯ arcs across the upper portion of the field, divided between the two halves. The Latin binomial name POTENTILLA RUPESTRIS is inscribed along the lower margin, also split between the contrasting fields. The overall design emphasizes the delicate structure of the plant through fine engraving against the two-tone background. |
