Reverse description	Pseudo-Arabic tamgha or monogram occupying the central field, imitating the design of Golden Horde dangs, rendered in a highly stylized and largely illegible cursive form. The design consists of an interlaced geometric ornament within a square frame with extended finials, a common feature of Muscovite imitative coinage produced during the period of Tatar suzerainty. Dotted border elements are visible along the periphery of the irregular flan. The imitative nature of the legend reflects the political and commercial context of the late 14th-century Moscow principality.
