| Reverse description | The reverse bears a three-line Cyrillic inscription arranged horizontally across the field, separated from the upper area by a wavy tilde-like ornamental divider. The legend reads КНSЬ ВЕЛIКI IВАН, translating as 'Grand Duke Ivan', identifying the issuing ruler as Ivan IV. The lettering is deeply but unevenly struck, consistent with the hand-hammered wire-money production technique of the period, with individual characters showing the archaic Cyrillic forms typical of mid-16th century Muscovite coinage. |
