| Obverse description | A stylized beast depicted in right-facing profile, featuring prominent clawed feet, rendered in a crude yet expressive hammered style characteristic of Georgian copper coinage of the period. The creature is surrounded by decorative floral elements arranged throughout the field. Due to the nature of hammered production on an irregular planchet, portions of the design are typically weak or missing at the edges. |
