| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into three concentric rings on a mirror-polished ground. The outer ring bears the names of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals in Cyrillic on a matte background, rotated so that ЛОШАДЬ appears at the top. The middle ring displays the corresponding Chinese characters in matte relief against a mirror field, and the inner ring bears the cycle years 2009–2020 in matte relief. At the centre, a geometric solar rosette with a sunburst motif and twelve-pointed star ornament occupies the central disc. |
