Reverse description In the center is the Coat of Arms of the Moscow Province and an inscription along the edge of the medal. The coat of arms of the Moscow Province was approved in the 18th–19th centuries and replicated the main symbol of Moscow (Saint George), but in a simplified, `provincial` version. Shield, crown, and branches are a classic composition for provincial coats of arms.
