Reverse
The central part features the monogram of Empress Elizabeth I (Petrovna). Above the monogram is the imperial crown. On both sides of the monogram are digits of the coin's year of issue: on the left — '17', on the right — '61' (1761). In the left part of the coin, a laurel branch runs along the rim, and in the right part, a palm branch. At the base, the branches are tied with a ribbon, the knot of which forms a bow.
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 the heads. 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 Apostle the First-Called. In its right talon, the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left — an orb. At the bottom edge is a curved ribbon with the inscription: FIVE • KOPEKS
