Reverse description The heraldic emblem of the Branković dynasty occupies the central field: a lion rampant facing left, with a boldly rendered mane and raised forepaw, executed in the flat relief typical of medieval Serbian hammered coinage. Two six-pointed stars appear in the lower field beneath the lion, serving as mintmarks or decorative elements associated with the Smederevo mint. A Cyrillic peripheral legend surrounds the device, referencing the city of Smederevo.
