The "7 orbits" nickname refers to the seven lines encircling the globe on the reverse die used during 1935–1936, distinguishing it from the later variant where that number was reduced. Soviet minor coinage of this period was being redesigned in stages following the 1935 monetary reforms tied to the abolition of the bread card system — Stalin's regime used the occasion to refresh circulating coinage imagery as part of broader propaganda around collectivization's supposed success.
