Reverse description The reverse presents a richly detailed multi-figure composition depicting a spring round dance (khorovod) arranged across the lower field, evoking Ukrainian folk traditions associated with the season of the Annunciation. Above this scene, a representation of the Annunciation — the archangel Gabriel appearing before the Virgin Mary — occupies the upper portion of the field. A semicircular legend reading БЛАГОВІЩЕННЯ (Annunciation) arches above the sacred scene, framing the composition. The overall design integrates religious and ethnographic imagery in a harmonious artistic composition characteristic of Ukrainian commemorative coinage of this period.
