| Reverse description | The reverse bears a vivid color-printed cartoon scene depicting the four animal musicians from the Soviet animated adaptation of 'The Bremen Town Musicians' — a donkey, dog, cat, and rooster — rendered in a lively, illustrative style against a colorful background. The inscription 'БРЕМЕНСКИЕ МУЗЫКАНТЫ' (The Bremen Town Musicians) arcs along the upper circumference in relief Cyrillic lettering. The colorized design occupies the majority of the coin's field, with the figures rendered in bold, saturated hues consistent with the original animated film artwork. |

| Additional information |
Part of a long-running Bank of Russia series commemorating characters from fairy tales and children's literature, this piece draws on the Brothers Grimm story popularized in the Soviet Union through the 1969 Soyuzmultfilm animated adaptation — a film that became genuinely canonical in Russian popular culture, arguably better known there than the Grimm source material itself. The applied color distinguishes catalog variant Y#1888.1 from the uncolored issue struck in the same year.
