| Obverse description | The obverse features the Imperial Russian double-headed eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head surmounted by a crown and the whole surmounted by a third, larger Imperial crown above. At the center of the eagle's breast is a shield depicting Saint George on horseback slaying the dragon. The eagle's talons clutch an orb and sceptre. The design is rendered in bold relief in the style associated with early nineteenth-century Russian coinage patterns. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination numeral within a wreath composed of oak and laurel branches tied at the base with a ribbon. An Imperial crown surmounts the wreath at the top, below which a five-pointed star appears above the Cyrillic inscription denoting the value. The mint mark 'С.П.Б.' (Saint Petersburg Mint) is inscribed in the lower portion of the field, beneath a horizontal dividing line. The overall composition is characteristic of pattern coinage engraved under the direction of Ivan Nevedomsky. |
