Reverse description A bold bust-length effigy of Tsar Peter I (Peter the Great) is depicted in three-quarter view, rendered in armor with a fur-trimmed mantle draped over his left shoulder and a commander's baton held in his right hand. In the background to the left, the distinctive silhouette of the Peter and Paul Fortress in Saint Petersburg is visible, while a sailing warship appears in the right field, referencing Peter's foundational role in building the Russian navy. The curved legend 500-ЛЕТИЕ ЕДИНОГО РУССКОГО ГОСУДАРСТВА (500th Anniversary of the United Russian State) arcs along the upper periphery. The inscription ПЕТР I - ПРЕОБРАЗОВАТЕЛЬ (Peter I - The Reformer) is inscribed in the lower field beneath the portrait. The composition is executed in a high-relief sculptural style with deeply frosted surfaces against polished proof fields.
