| Reverse description | The reverse presents a portrait of Friedrich Georg Wilhelm von Struve in the left-center field against a smooth background, with a semicircular legend ГЕОДЕЗИЧНА ДУГА СТРУВЕ / 1816 – 1855 arcing to the right of the effigy, indicating the survey period. To the left of the portrait, superimposed over a stylized geographic map, a conventionalized representation of the Struve Arc meridian line is depicted, with the inscription ФУГЛЕНЕС 2822 км (Fuglenes, 2,822 km) appearing above and СТАРА НЕКРАСІВКА (Stara Nekrasivka) below, marking the northern and southern terminal points of the arc respectively. The overall composition commemorates the UNESCO World Heritage surveying achievement spanning from Norway to the Black Sea. |
