| Reverse description | Full-length colored depiction of Father Frost (Ded Moroz) and the Snow Maiden (Snegurochka) rendered in a traditional Russian folk-art style, both clad in ornate blue and white fur-trimmed robes. Father Frost holds a wooden staff with a squirrel perched upon it, while the Snow Maiden extends her arm toward a small bird; woodland animals including a fawn and rabbits populate the snowy foreground. A silhouette of an Orthodox church and birch trees forms the background, with large decorative snowflakes falling across the upper field. The date 2023 appears at the top of the oval field, and the inscription FATHER FROST AND SNOW MAIDEN is engraved in script along the lower portion of the field. |
