In the left part of the coin, a laurel branch runs along the circumference near 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. The coin's rim is made in the form of denticles.

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. Below the right talon is the letter 'S', below the left talon is the letter 'M'. The mintmark of the Sestroretsk Mint. Along the lower edge is a curved ribbon with the inscription: FIVE • KOPEKS
