Reverse description The coat of arms of Saint Petersburg occupies the central field in relief, featuring the crossed anchors and sceptre on a shield surmounted by an imperial crown and flanked by two double-headed eagle supporters, with the city name inscribed on a ribbon above. The СПМД mint mark appears to the lower right of the shield, while a laser-matted panoramic frieze of the city's most celebrated architectural silhouettes encircles the composition in the surrounding field.
