Reverse description The central field features the Coat of Arms of Saint Petersburg in high relief — a shield bearing crossed anchors and a sceptre, surmounted by an imperial crown and flanked by scrollwork supporters with double-headed eagle finials. The city name appears on a ribbon banner at the top, and a laser-matted panoramic silhouette of Saint Petersburg's most famous landmarks surrounds the coat of arms around the border. The Saint Petersburg Mint mark (СПМД) appears to the lower right of the shield.
