Reverse
In the upper part of the reverse is the crown of the Russian Empire. Below, on two lines, the denomination (with stars on the left and right) and the monetary unit are indicated: 15 KOPĒEKЪ. Below that is an element—a separator consisting of two oppositely directed arrows with five dots between them. The five dots form a cross. Under the separator is the year of minting '1912'. Under the year is the abbreviation 'S.P.B.' (Saint Petersburg Mint). In the left part of the coin, along the edge, is a laurel branch, and in the right part, an oak branch. At the base, the branches are tied with a ribbon forming a neat bow. Raised denticles are minted around the entire edge of the coin.
Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle. Both heads of the eagle bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is 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 on the left). Around the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle the First-Called. The coats of arms on the wings (four on each wing): Kazan, Polish, Taurida, Astrakhan, Siberian, Georgian, Kiev and Novgorod, Vladimir. In the right talon is a scepter, and below it the letter 'Ē'. In the left talon is an orb, and below it the letter 'B'. Together the letters form the initials indicating mintmaster Elikum Babayants. The rim is decorated with denticles pointing towards the center.
