Reverse description At center, a detailed three-quarter perspective rendering of the Church of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel in Kobet, a medieval stone church dating to the 10th–14th centuries, depicted with its characteristic tower crowned by a cross and an adjoining nave with arched windows and doorways, set upon a textured ground. Above the church, a small medallion bearing an ornate cross pattée is depicted in the upper field. The mirror-polished black field is encircled by a raised Cyrillic legend identifying the Alanic Eparchy and the village of Kobet along the upper border, with the church's full dedication in Ossetic running along the lower and lateral borders. The date range 'X–XIV æ.' (10th–14th century) appears to the right in the upper field.
