Reverse description The reverse presents a bold and cleanly composed design within a beaded inner circle. At the center, the denomination '5' appears in large numerals above the Cyrillic legend 'РУБЛЕЙ' (Roubles) in prominent raised letters. Separating the denomination from the date below is a decorative foliate sprig ornament. The date of issue appears beneath the ornament, followed by the mint mark 'С.П.Б.' (St. Petersburg) in smaller characters. Surrounding the inner circle, a continuous Cyrillic peripheral legend reads 'ЧИСТАГО ЗОЛОТА 1 ЗОЛОТНИКЪ 39 ДОЛЕЙ' (Pure Gold 1 Zolotnik 39 Dolyas), precisely stating the fine gold content of the coin in traditional Russian weight measures. The overall composition is austere and utilitarian, emphasizing the coin's intrinsic metallic value.
