| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Empress Elizabeth I of Russia, wearing an imperial crown surmounted by a cross, with long flowing hair falling over her shoulder and an elaborately decorated corsage visible at the truncation. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the neoclassical court style characteristic of mid-18th century Russian coinage. A Cyrillic circular legend surrounds the portrait, separated from the inner field by a raised rim. The mint mark СПБ (St. Petersburg) appears in the lower field below the bust truncation. |
