Reverse description The central field depicts a detailed relief view of the Bedia Cathedral of the Holy Mary, Mother of God, a medieval Georgian Orthodox church. To the left of the cathedral stands the Bedia Life-giving Cross, and to the right the celebrated Bedia gold chalice, both rendered in relief. A semicircular Abkhaz-language legend arcs across the upper portion of the field reading «АЦҚЬА МАРИА НЦӘАДЗЫХШААЗ ИЛЫЗКУ БЕДИА НЫХА» (The Bedia Cathedral of the Holy Mary, the Mother of God). An inscription below the image of the cathedral notes the date of its foundation.
