Mendeleyev, the alloy standard, the trademark of the St. Petersburg Mint and the mass of the precious metal in purity.
On the reverse side of the coin there are relief and color images of the badge of the Order of St. Alexander Nevsky, the star of the order and a folded ribbon against the background of a fragment of the Holy Trinity Cathedral of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra made using laser matting technology; at the bottom there are relief inscriptions: along the circumference – “INSTITUTION OF THE ORDER OF ST. ALEXANDER NEVSKY”, above it – “1725”.
