Obverse description A detailed aerial-perspective relief panorama of Saint Petersburg against a mirror-polished field, depicting in the foreground the Peter and Paul Fortress with the spire of the Peter and Paul Cathedral, the Neva River with a tall-masted sailing vessel, and the spit of Vasilievsky Island with its Rostral Columns and the Stock Exchange building. In the background, the Winter Palace (Hermitage) is visible to the left and the dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral to the right. At the top of the field, a radiant angel figure — the Guardian of the City — is flanked by decorative ribbon scrolls, with the circular Cyrillic legend along the rim.
