| Obverse description | A detailed relief depiction of the Naval Cathedral of Saint Nicholas in Kronstadt, shown in three-quarter perspective with its large central dome and flanking structures. Radiating lines fill the field behind the cathedral, creating a sunburst effect. The legend arcs around the upper field and the city name appears in the lower exergue, all within a decorative beaded and scalloped border. |
