Reverse
The center of the reverse is occupied by the coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle, both heads of which bear crowns. A third, larger crown is positioned 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). The shield is encircled by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle. In its right talon, the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left, an orb. Below the right talon is the letter 'A', and below the left, the letter 'K'—the initials of mintmaster Andrey Kotsberg. Above the eagle is the year of mintage: '1795'. An inscription arches from right to left around the state emblem: МОНЕТА • РꙊБЛЬ. The edge is reeded.
Obverse
The center of the obverse features the right-facing profile of Russian Empress Catherine II. On the lower left part of the portrait are the initials 'T.I.', indicating the medallist Timofey Ivanov. At the bottom, beneath the portrait, is the abbreviation 'С П Б' (Saint Petersburg Mint). Along the edge, an inscription arches from the lower left: Б•М•ЕКАТЕРИНА•II•IМП•ИСАМОД•ВСЕРОСС•. The edge is reeded.
