In addition the obverse of the latter coin bears the mark of the National Bank of Ukraine Mint.
On the reverse of the coins there is depicted Cyclamen coum (Kuznetzovii) (it is coloured on the German silver coin thanks to the use of pad printing) together with the inscriptions ЦИКЛАМЕН КОСЬКИЙ (КУЗНЕЦОВА) (above) and CYCLAMEN COUM MILL. S. L. (below)
