Reverse description The reverse depicts a Zaporozhian Cossack warrior in dramatic high relief, shown in three-quarter view aiming a flintlock musket, clad in an ornately embroidered kaftan with wide-cut trousers and tall boots, a characteristic oseledets scalp-lock visible atop his shaved head. At his belt hang a gilded powder horn and additional accoutrements rendered with selective gold gilding, providing vivid contrast against the antique silver finish. The background field is framed by a decorative border of stylized oak leaves and viburnum berry clusters, the berries highlighted with selective red enamel coloring. A frieze of Cossack cavalry warriors engaged in battle is visible in low relief behind the central figure. The inscription ZAPOROZHIAN COSSACK appears along the right inner border in a curved Latin legend.
