| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, highly detailed naturalistic depiction of a coiled snake occupying the majority of the field, rendered in exceptional sculptural relief with precisely articulated scales across the body. The design is split between a polished mirror left field providing dramatic contrast and a matte right field bearing a stylised ornamental snake motif in low relief, reminiscent of traditional Ukrainian folk art or ancient tribal imagery. The Cyrillic inscription ЗМІЯ appears in the lower centre of the field, identifying the subject. The interplay of proof and matte surfaces creates a striking two-tone visual effect characteristic of Ukrainian commemorative coinage of this period. |
