| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and armored bust of Tsar Peter the Great facing right, depicted in classical Roman military attire with a draped pauldron and ornate breastplate, rendered in high relief. The legend ГАНГУТЪ arcs across the upper field, flanked by the commemorative dates 1714 to the left and 1914 to the right, marking the bicentennial of the Battle of Gangut. Along the lower rim, the inscription 27 ІЮЛЯ (27 July) records the date of the historic naval engagement. The portrait, executed in a bold neoclassical style, fills the central field with considerable sculptural depth. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Gangut — Russia's first significant naval victory, fought in 1714 against Sweden during the Great Northern War — this rouble was one of the last commemorative issues struck before the First World War effectively ended normal coin production. Nicholas II authorized several such anniversary roubles in the years preceding the war, but Gangut holds a particular irony: a celebration of naval supremacy commissioned by a tsar whose fleet had been catastrophically destroyed at Tsushima less than a decade earlier.
Mintage was limited to approximately 30,000 pieces, most distributed through court channels rather than general circulation.
