Reverse description The central field presents a finely detailed high-relief depiction of the Intercession (Pokrovskaya) Church of the Novodevichy Convent in Moscow, its characteristic onion domes, bell tower, and surrounding monastic walls rendered with precise architectural fidelity characteristic of the Russian ecclesiastical Baroque tradition. The composition is framed by a circular legend НОВОДЕВИЧИЙ МОНАСТЫРЬ В МОСКВЕ inscribed along the upper periphery. The treatment of architectural surface texture and foliage in the lower field demonstrates the refined engraving technique associated with Saint Petersburg Mint commemorative issues of this series.
