Reverse
The denomination and monetary unit are placed on two lines: 5 РУБЛЕЙ. Below is a divider element consisting of two elongated, oppositely directed figures with a dot between them. Under the divider is the year of mintage '1871'. Below the year is the abbreviation 'С.П.Б.' (Saint Petersburg Mint). Between the edge and the center of the coin is a border of closely spaced dots. Between the edge and this border, a circular inscription reads: ЧИСТАГО ЗОЛОТА 1 ЗОЛОТНИКЪ 39 ДОЛЕЙ. The edge of the coin is decorated with a rim of sharp denticles pointing towards the center.
Obverse
The center of the obverse features the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire – a double-headed eagle. Both eagle heads bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is placed between them. All three crowns are connected by a ribbon. On the eagle's chest 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 left). The shield is surrounded by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle. The coats of arms on the wings (four on each wing) are: Kazan, Polish, Taurida, Astrakhan, Siberian, Georgian, Kiev and Novgorod, Vladimir. In the right talon is a scepter, and below it the letter 'Н'. In the left talon is an orb, and below it the letter 'I'. Together, the letters form the initials of mintmaster Nikolai Iossa. The rim is decorated with denticles pointing towards the center.
