| Obverse description | Draped bust of Empress Elizaveta I facing right, wearing an elaborate pearl-studded crown and imperial robes with an ornate epaulette visible on the right shoulder. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the Baroque court style characteristic of mid-18th century Russian coinage. The mint mark СПБ appears in the lower field beneath the bust truncation. A Cyrillic legend encircles the portrait, reading from the upper left around the rim. |
