| Obverse description | The obverse features a high-relief depiction of the sculptural group 'A Young Man Defeated by a Horse' from Klodt's 'Taming of a Horse by Man' series, showing a rearing horse overpowering a fallen youth clinging to the reins. The laser-matted background renders a panoramic view of the Anichkov Bridge with a second sculptural group visible at right and the Beloselsky-Belozersky Palace at left. The Cyrillic legend 'КОНИ КЛОДТА НА АНИЧКОВОМ МОСТУ' arcs along the upper rim. |
