Reverse description Cyrillic inscription arranged in multiple lines across the field, reading ГОСПОДАРЬ ВСЕЯ РУСИ, meaning 'Sovereign of All Rus', a titulature adopted by Ivan III following the annexation of Tver in 1478. The legend is distributed across the flan in the characteristic compact, multi-line format of Muscovite dengas of this period, with letter forms consistent with late 15th-century Cyrillic epigraphy. The flat, irregularly shaped flan bears the full weight of the inscription within its limited surface area.
