| Reverse description | The reverse depicts two period sailing warships from the fleet of Peter the Great rendered in high relief against a mirror-proof field; a large three-masted ship of the line dominates the right foreground, with a smaller vessel at left. Inset at upper centre is a medallic portrait of Peter the Great in profile, laureate and draped, encircled by a Cyrillic legend identifying him as Emperor. The curved legend '500-ЛЕТИЕ ЕДИНОГО РУССКОГО ГОСУДАРСТВА' (500th Anniversary of the United Russian State) arcs along the upper periphery, while 'ФЛОТ ПЕТРА ВЕЛИКОГО' (Peter the Great's Fleet) is inscribed along the lower field. |
