| Reverse description | The bimetallic reverse features a large numeral '5' prominently displayed in the centre of the nickel silver inner disc, flanked on either side by finely detailed sprigs — a laurel branch to the left and an oak branch to the right — rendered in high relief. Below the numeral, the Cyrillic denomination ЧЕРВОНЦЕВ is inscribed across the field, with the mint monogram ММД (Moscow Mint) appearing beneath. The outer brass ring bears the Cyrillic legend КРАСНАЯ КНИГА СССР (Red Book of the USSR) around the upper arc, with the date 2022 at the base, flanked by two five-pointed stars. |

| Additional information |
MasterVision is not a sovereign mint or recognized monetary authority — "Chervontsev" evokes the Soviet-era chervonets, a gold-backed currency unit introduced by the Bolsheviks in 1922 to stabilize an economy wrecked by civil war and hyperinflation, but this piece carries no traceable connection to that history beyond the borrowed name. The dzeren is a Central Asian gazelle native to the steppes of Mongolia and southern Russia, listed as a species of concern due to habitat loss from border fencing.
