Reverse description The central field features a finely engraved depiction of the icon of the Virgin Hodegetria (Одигитрия), attributed to the painter Dionisy, showing the Virgin Mary in three-quarter figure holding the Christ Child on her left arm, both with haloes rendered in relief. To the left of the icon, an architectural vignette depicts a Russian Orthodox church with a domed bell tower and a procession of clergy or worshippers below. To the right, a decorative panel displays the double-headed eagle emblem in linear relief. The name ДИОНИСИЙ (Dionisy) is inscribed in stylized Cyrillic lettering along the lower portion of the reverse field, set against a dark frosted background typical of proof coinage.
