| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vivid full-color portrait of a Kabardinetz (Kabardian warrior) rendered in the style of a 19th-century ethnographic illustration, depicted in full figure standing against a fine engine-turned background field. The subject wears a traditional Circassian coat (chokha) in terracotta-orange with a cartridge belt (gaziri) across the chest, a fur papakha hat, leather boots, and carries a long rifle slung over his shoulder with a second firearm at his waist. The upper register features a dark decorative band bearing the Circassian inscription 'азахэ адыгэ' flanked by symmetrical snowflake and Circassian ornamental motifs, with a central white equestrian device depicting two horsemen. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded rectangular border with decorative corner elements in the Circassian artistic tradition. |
