Obverse description Central design depicts a color applied iconic portrait of Saint Matrona of Moscow in full-face orientation, shown in a teal-green robe and white head covering, hands raised in prayer before her chest, rendered in the traditional Orthodox iconographic style. The saint's image is framed by an elaborate pierced and enameled mandorla-like border composed of repeating floral and foliate motifs in black and silver, lending the coin a distinctly devotional aesthetic. Flanking the central figure within the decorative border are Cyrillic inscriptions identifying the saint. The overall composition closely follows classical Russian Orthodox icon painting conventions.
