Mendeleyev, alloy fineness, trademark of the St. Petersburg Mint and pure mass of precious metal.
On the reverse side of the coin there is a relief image of I. I. Orlov's portrait against the background of a drawing of the printing press created by Orlov, made using the laser matting technique, and a colored ornamental coating imitating the Orlov seal; at the top right in two lines is the inscription: "ORLOVSKAYA PECHAT", at the bottom is a facsimile of I. I. Orlov's signature.
