| Reverse description | A detailed and partially colorized view of the Kizhi Pogost UNESCO World Heritage Site in Russia dominates the reverse field. The iconic Church of the Transfiguration, with its twenty-two tiered onion domes surmounted by Orthodox crosses, is rendered prominently to the left with applied amber and ochre coloring to simulate the wooden log construction. To the right, the Church of the Intercession and the bell tower are similarly depicted with selective color application. The date 2012 appears in the central field, and a small globe logo inscribed WORLD OF WONDERS is positioned in the upper right. The legend KIZHI POGOST arcs along the upper rim in bold raised Latin lettering. |
