Obverse description Crowned double-headed eagle in the style of the Catherine II imperial coinage occupies the central field, with wings displayed and orbs and sceptre in the talons. The legend ПЕРВОПРОХОДЦЫ ЗЕМЛИ РУССКОЙ (Pioneers of the Russian Land) arcs along the upper periphery, with the denomination ПЯТЬ ПЯДЕЙ (Five Pyadey) and mint mark ММД positioned in the lower field alongside the date 2014. The design is a deliberate evocation of 18th-century Russian imperial heraldic style. The overall composition reflects the fantasy series issued by MasterVision commemorating Russian historical figures and exploration.
