| Obverse description | At centre, the double-headed eagle emblem of the Bank of Russia with wings lowered occupies the field, encircled by a beaded border. The upper arc of the legend reads `ТРИ РУБЛЯ` (THREE ROUBLES), while the lower arc carries the alloy designation `Ag 925`, the year of issue `2011 г.`, the fine metal content `31,1`, and the Saint Petersburg Mint monogram `СПМД`. The inscription `БАНК РОССИИ` (BANK OF RUSSIA) appears in a semicircle immediately beneath the eagle. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Bank of Russia's long-running commemorative program celebrating childhood themes, this issue belongs to a series that drew occasional criticism for prioritizing mass appeal over numismatic distinction — the Russian mint produced these in volumes that ensured they would never be genuinely scarce. The .925 silver specification was standard for the 3-rouble proof program throughout this period, a format the CBR leaned on heavily in the 2000s and 2010s to generate collector revenue without issuing currency of any practical monetary weight.
