| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic legend filling the entire field, arranged in horizontal registers across the irregular flan. The inscription reads the full royal titulature of Tsar Boris Fyodorovich Godunov: 'ЦРЬ И ВЕЛИКIИ КНSЬ БОРИСЪ ФЕОДОРОВИЧЬ ВСЕЯ РУСИ' (Tsar and Grand Prince Boris Fyodorovich of all Rus'). The lettering is characteristic of late 16th-century Muscovite epigraphy, with archaic Cyrillic letterforms including the ligature 'КНS' for 'Князь'. Due to the small, irregular flan, the legend is typically incomplete or partially off-flan on any given specimen. |
