Obverse description Center field features the coat of arms of Serpukhov, depicting a peacock with a spread tail in the lower half and St. George slaying the dragon in the upper left quarter, set within a heraldic shield. A decorative scrollwork ribbon arching across the top bears the series legend in Cyrillic, flanked by ornamental volutes. The city name appears in bold Cyrillic lettering along the lower rim, flanked by small lozenge ornaments. The mirror-polished field provides strong contrast against the frosted relief elements.

Reverse description The center of the field features a raised relief reproduction of a medieval silver denga of the Serpukhov Principality (14th century), oval in shape and depicting a leopard-like creature with an Arabic inscription above. This central coin image is set against a laser-matted background reproducing a fragment of a 16th-century Illustrated Chronicle miniature, showing a coin-minting scene with multiple figures rendered in a flat, graphic style against the mirror-polished field.
