| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed scene of an expedition camp set against a mountainous background, evoking the landscape of Tibet. To the right within the field, the dates «1883» and «1885» mark the years of the expedition. In the upper portion of the field, a bird is shown in flight, while in the lower left foreground an antelope stands, and to the lower right a Kuku Yaman — a bovid bearing characteristics of both goat and ram — is represented. The curved legend «2-я ТИБЕТСКАЯ ЭКСПЕДИЦИЯ» (The 2nd Tibet Expedition) runs along the upper rim. |
