| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a richly detailed scene inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann's tale of The Nutcracker, featuring the armored Nutcracker figure at left in high relief, with decorative baroque scrollwork and battle imagery surrounding him. To the right, the face of Marie (Clara) is rendered in fine detail, her long hair flowing downward. A single inlaid synthetic emerald-green crystal is set into the Nutcracker's breastplate, providing a vivid chromatic accent against the oxidized silver field. The legend ШЧАЎКУНОК is inscribed along the lower portion of the field in Cyrillic characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Belarus issued a long-running series of collector coins tied to ballet productions staged at the Bolshoi Theatre in Minsk, and this piece belongs to that program. The Nutcracker's inclusion reflects the outsized cultural weight the ballet carries in post-Soviet states, where it remained a fixture of state theatre repertoires throughout the Soviet period and beyond — less a holiday novelty than a year-round institutional production.
The oxidized finish combined with an applied synthetic crystal was a deliberate production choice to add dimensional interest, a technique the Belarusian mint leaned on heavily for its numismatic issues during this period.
