The central part features the denomination 5. Above the numeral is the crown of the Russian Empire. Below is the name of the monetary unit "KOPIEK". Below this inscription is a line, under which is the abbreviation "S.P.B." (Saint Petersburg Mint). On the left side of the coin along the edge is a laurel branch, and on the right an oak branch. At the base, the branches are tied together with a ribbon. Raised denticles are struck along the coin's edge.
Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle with wings spread. The eagle's heads bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is above and between them. On the eagle's breast is the coat of arms of Moscow—a shield depicting St. George the Victorious on horseback, slaying a serpent with a long spear (the serpent's head is to the right). Around the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. In its right talon the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left an orb. Under the right talon is the letter "N", under the left "G". The initials of mintmaster Nikolai Grachev. Below the initials is the year of minting "1826.". The rim is decorated with denticles.
