Reverse description The reverse depicts a male gorodki player in dynamic mid-throw stance at centre, rendered in high relief, holding a bat (bitta) and preparing to knock down a formation of cylindrical wooden pins (gorodki). To the left of the figure, two scattered gorodki formations are shown in the field; to the right, additional formations including a 'letter' and 'gun' arrangement are depicted. In the lower field, the Moscow 1980 Olympic Games emblem — a stylised running track and five Olympic rings — appears alongside a decorative foliate scroll motif. The mintmark 'ЛМД' of the Leningrad Mint appears at lower left. The curved legend 'ИГРЫ XXII ОЛИМПИАДЫ · МОСКВА · 1980' runs along the upper periphery, and the date '1980' is inscribed in the lower exergue.
