| Beschrijving keerzijde | A lion passant to the right occupies the central field, with a cross rising behind its hindquarters. The composition follows the established heraldic tradition of Cilician Armenian coinage, with the lion rendered in a stylised manner characteristic of late medieval Armenian hammered silver. A dotted inner border partially frames the design, and the Armenian mint legend is distributed around the periphery, partially lost to the irregular flan edges. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Leo V (known to history as "the Usurper" among rival claimants) seized the Cilician Armenian throne during its final years of coherent royal authority, when the kingdom was being compressed by Mamluk raids from the south and Karamanid pressure from the north. His brief reign of roughly two years produced a thin coinage record, and silver issues attributable specifically to his tenure remain difficult to anchor with precision to particular minting episodes.
Cilician Armenia would fall definitively to the Mamluks in 1375, just a decade after Leo's reign ended.
