Reverse description	The reverse displays a prominent Iron Cross (Eisernes Kreuz) occupying the full field, with each arm defined by finely reeded edges and concave inner curves meeting at the centre. Superimposed upon the cross in bold Cyrillic characters is the denomination 3 КОПѢЙКИ (3 Kopecks), with the numeral 3 positioned in the upper arm and the date 1916 in the lower arm. The design is uncluttered, relying entirely on the symbolic weight of the Iron Cross motif to assert German military authority over the occupied eastern territories.
