| Reverse description | The reverse features the State Coat of Arms of the Russian Federation — a gilt double-headed eagle surmounted by three crowns, holding a sceptre and orb, with a shield bearing the mounted St. George slaying the dragon on its breast. The eagle is displayed in high relief against a dark mirror field, surrounded by radiating segments interspersed with small depictions of historical Russian orders and medals. The Cyrillic legend arches along the upper border, with a copper-toned laurel branch ornament at the base. |
