Aversbeschreibung The obverse of this rectangular silver coin features an elaborate, deeply struck filigree-style border of interlacing foliate and floral scrollwork occupying the entire field, rendered in high relief against a frosted background. At the center, set within a diamond-shaped reserve, is a detailed depiction of an ornate Orthodox cross with a decorative center medallion. The Belarusian state coat of arms appears in the upper left corner, accompanied by the legend 'РЭСПУБЛIКА БЕЛАРУСЬ' (Republic of Belarus) in Cyrillic script along the upper margin.

Reversbeschreibung The reverse presents a finely detailed depiction of the icon of the Vladimir Mother of God (Theotokos of Vladimir), one of the most venerated icons in Orthodox Christianity, rendered in high relief with select gold-plated elements. The Virgin Mary is shown in a tender embrace with the Christ Child, her head inclined gently toward Him, both figures exhibiting delicate facial modeling and draped robes with gilded highlights. Flanking the central icon panel are two vertical columns of six saints or angels in low relief, each depicted in traditional Orthodox iconographic style, with decorative rosette ornaments separating each figure. Gold-plated halos and select decorative accents on the garments heighten the devotional character of the composition. The inscription 'УЛАДЗІМІРСКАЯ' (Of Vladimir) appears in Cyrillic script within a cartouche at the lower margin of the design.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Issued as part of Belarus's long-running Orthodox Christianity commemorative program, this 500-gram piece belongs to a series the National Bank launched in the early 2000s to document icons of particular devotion within the Eastern Orthodox tradition. The Vladimir Icon holds a specific place in that tradition: venerated since at least the 12th century, it was carried before Russian armies at critical moments including the 1380 Battle of Kulikovo, and credited with turning back Tamerlane's forces in 1395 without a battle being fought.

The selective gold plating over .925 silver was a deliberate production choice for this series, requiring hand-finishing at each stage.
