Obverse description The obverse features the Russian State emblem — a stylised double-headed eagle with wings displayed, rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The eagle is depicted without a shield on its breast, consistent with the Bank of Russia's standard numismatic device. A beaded inner circle frames the central device. The Cyrillic legend ТРИ РУБЛЯ (Three Roubles) arcs across the upper field, while БАНК РОССИИИ (Bank of Russia) curves along the lower field beneath the eagle. The year 2015 г. appears in the exergue, flanked by the fineness mark Ag 925 to the left, the weight indicator 31,1 to the right, and the mint mark ММД (Moscow Mint) incorporated near the engraver's initials.

Additional information

Part of the Bank of Russia's long-running commemorative series marking Russian cities, this issue honors Vladivostok's railway station — the western terminus building that marks the official end of the Trans-Siberian Railway at kilometer post 9,288. Construction of the station was completed in 1912, though trains had been reaching Vladivostok along the completed eastern sections since 1897. The station's design was deliberately monumental, meant to anchor the eastern edge of the empire with architectural authority equal to the Yaroslavsky Terminal in Moscow, where the line begins.
