Reverse description The entire reverse field is occupied by a six-line Cyrillic commemorative inscription in bold raised lettering, set within a plain field bordered by a continuous inner ring of beading. The text opens with the date 1812 at the top and closes with the centenary date 1912 at the base, flanking the patriotic quotation commemorating the glorious deeds of the Patriotic War. The composition is austere and monumental, with no figurative devices, giving the inscription a medal-like gravitas befitting the centenary occasion.
