| Reverse description | The reverse field is entirely occupied by a four-line Cyrillic inscription arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, a layout typical of Muscovite denga coinage of the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The bold, individually punched letters read the title of Sovereign of All Rus, affirming Ivan III's claim to hegemony over the Russian lands. The inscription fills the available field with large, well-spaced characters. The irregular planchet results in partial letter truncation at the edges on some specimens. |
