| Reverse description | The reverse bears a dynamic depiction of Saint George the Victorious mounted on a rearing horse, driving a long lance downward to slay a dragon coiled beneath the horse's hooves. The saint is shown in profile, wearing armor and bearing a halo, with a billowing cape and a banner-topped lance rendered in fine relief against a mountainous landscape background. The Cyrillic inscription 'СВ.ГЕОРГИ ПОБЕДОНОСЕЦ' is divided across the upper field, with 'СВ.ГЕОРГИ' to the left and 'ПОБЕДОНОСЕЦ' to the right of the central composition. The scene is executed in a highly detailed, medallic style consistent with Eastern Orthodox iconographic tradition. |
