| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a portrait effigy of Grand Hetman of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania Konstantinas Ostrogiškis in the foreground, set against a dynamic background depicting fragments of the Battle of Orsha. The legend DIDYSIS LDK ETMONAS KONSTANTINAS OSTROGIŠKIS arcs around the design, identifying the depicted commander. The inscription ORŠOS MŪŠIS appears prominently, together with the numeral 500, commemorating the 500th anniversary of the battle fought in 1514. The composition blends portraiture with historical battle imagery in a detailed, engraved style befitting a commemorative proof issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Battle of Orsha, fought in September 1514, saw Lithuanian and Polish forces under Konstanty Ostrogski decisively rout a Muscovite army roughly three times their size — one of the more lopsided victories in early modern Eastern European warfare. The engagement halted Muscovite expansion westward for a generation and remains a point of considerable national pride in Lithuania, though its commemoration in 2014 carried an unmistakable edge given Russia's annexation of Crimea that same year.
