| Reverse description | Central field features the Moldavian auroch or bovine head in heraldic style, rendered with bold hammered strokes on an irregular flan. A six-pointed star or rosette device appears prominently within or above the central motif, accompanied by a crescent element. The design is enclosed by a beaded inner circle, with a peripheral legend in uncial Latin characters dispersed around the circumference. The overall execution reflects the provincial hammered coinage style of the early Moldavian principality under Alexander I. |
