In the central part of the coin - Scheherazade’s face turned away and covered with a chador which is hidden among oriental ornamentation: an gateway to the sultan’s palace and two arches behind which there are stunning landscapes: an urban and marine ones. In the middle of the arabesque, in the arch - a zircon in the color of the sky. At the bottom – a view of an Arabic town; in the foreground there are four artifacts – symbols which are very common in oriental fairy tales: an amphora, magic carpet, camel – the ship of the desert, and a cobra – the symbol of wisdom. On the left there is a part of the town covered in darkness and waves throwing a vessel with trapped Jin in it to the shore. On the right – a tree with two birds and a tambura leaning against the tree. Over it, in a frame, there is a cage with a little bird. In the upper part of the coin – along the coin’s rim - an inscription saying “One Thousand and One Nights”.
