Reverse description The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic legend arranged across the entire field, filling the irregular flan characteristic of wire-money production. The inscription, rendered in bold relief in the early Russian Cyrillic script, reads the full royal titulature of Tsar Boris Fyodorovich Godunov: ЦАРЬ И ВЕЛИКИЙ КНЯЗЬ БОРИС ФЕДОРОВИЧ ВСЕЯ РУСИ ('Tsar and Grand Prince Boris Fyodorovich of all Rus'). The lettering is set in horizontal lines without a border, and the granular, slightly uneven surface reflects the hammered manufacturing process. The text is partially truncated at the flan edges, as is typical for coins of this series.
