Reverse description Square (lozenge-oriented) flan in antique-finish silver with a centrally applied gilt roundel reproducing the seal of Hetman Hryhory Loboda of the Zaporozhian Host, dating to the end of the sixteenth century; the gilt seal depicts a standing armed Cossack warrior in full relief, encircled by the Old Cyrillic legend of the seal itself. Surrounding the central medallion, a ring of eight-pointed stars is evenly spaced across the field. The Cyrillic inscription 'КОЗАЦЬКІ' arches across the upper register and 'КЛЕЙНОДИ' across the lower register in bold stylised lettering, while the dedication 'ПЕЧАТКА ГЕТЬМАНА ГРИГОРІЯ ЛОБОДИ. КІНЕЦЬ XVI СТ.' runs in a curve along the left and right sides of the field. Ornamental floral rosettes accent each of the four apex corners of the lozenge.

Additional information

Hryhory Loboda served as Hetman of the Zaporozhian Host in the early 1590s and again briefly before his assassination in 1596 — killed not by Polish forces but by his own Cossack rivals during the Nalyvaiko Uprising, a moment of brutal internal fracture within the Host. His regalia, the ceremonial objects denoting his authority, became symbols of contested Cossack legitimacy precisely because leadership during this period was so violently disputed.

This issue is part of a multi-coin series on Cossack hetman regalia, sharing KM references across four variants struck in the same year.
