Reverse description The reverse displays the coat of arms of Moscow — Saint George on horseback slaying a dragon — set within a decorative shield surmounted by the double-headed eagle of the Russian Federation coat of arms. Flanking the shield are the founding year '1147' on the left and '1997' on the right, with the anniversary numeral '850' on a scroll below. At the bottom of the field is a small circular medallion bearing a helmeted profile bust, referencing the Soviet medal commemorating the 800th anniversary of Moscow. The legend 'СТОЛИЦА РОССИИ' arcs along the left and right rim, with 'МОСКВА' inscribed on the base of the shield.
