| Obverse description | The obverse depicts the main entrance arch of VDNKh (the Exhibition of Achievements of National Economy) in detailed relief, showing the triumphal arch flanked by colonnades and smaller sculptural groups, with a central sculptural group of allegorical figures holding a sheaf and a model of an aircraft atop the arch, set against radiating sunbeams. Wheat sheaf sprigs frame the lower sides of the composition. The curved legend along the upper rim reads the name and dates of the structure. |
