Reverse description A richly detailed composition depicting the Khanty-Mansi traditional Bear Games ceremony. In the foreground, a large recumbent bear rendered in fine relief occupies the lower central field, adorned with a beaded necklace and draped pelt. Behind it, in the middle ground, stylised figures of celebrants and reindeer appear before conical chum tents and spruce trees. To the right, traditional ritual objects including an ornate mask, a decorated chest, and a ceremonial drum are arranged in the field. The Cyrillic inscription МЕДВЕЖЬИ ИГРИЩА appears to the left of centre, the date 2010 is incused at the bottom, and the legend ХАНТЫ-МАНСИЙСКИЙ АВТОНОМНЫЙ ОКРУГ — ЮГРА arcs along the upper periphery.
