| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed relief composition commemorating the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Second World War. A large circular void at center-right symbolizes destruction, surrounded by crumbling brick walls and war-ravaged ruins depicted in high relief with an oxidized finish. To the left, a T-34 tank and an artillery piece are shown advancing through rubble, evoking the imagery of wartime combat. Church bells hang within a ruined archway in the upper-left, symbolizing remembrance and liberation. The bold inscription 80 год Перамогі (80 Years of Victory) dominates the lower-central field in stylized Cyrillic script, accompanied by three red-colored carnation flowers rendered in applied color at the base, a traditional symbol of Soviet and Belarusian commemorative culture. |

| Additional information |
Belarus has issued commemorative WWII Victory coins annually for decades, part of a long-running program tied to the country's particular weight of that war — the BSSR lost roughly a third of its population between 1941 and 1944, a proportional loss exceeding almost any other occupied territory in Europe. The 2025 issue marks eighty years since the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany.
