| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a large standing statue of Vladimir Lenin on a pedestal, his right arm outstretched, set against radiating sunbeams emanating from a five-pointed star at the top. In the left background, the Peter and Paul Fortress with its spire and the Neva embankment are visible in low relief. A Soviet hammer-and-sickle emblem and a laurel branch appear in the lower field, with a draped banner to the right. The curved legend В ПАМЯТЬ 250-ЛЕТИЯ ОСНОВАНИЯ ЛЕНИНГРАДА runs along the upper rim, and the engraver's signature Н.СОКОЛОВ is incuse at the bottom. |
