Reverse description The reverse carries a multi-line Cyrillic inscription arranged in horizontal registers across the entire flan, reading 'Tsar and Grand Prince Ivan of all Rus.' The legend is set in archaic Church Slavonic lettering, characteristic of Muscovite coinage of the mid-to-late sixteenth century. The text fills the irregular field typical of wire-cut planchets, with letter forms displaying the compact, slightly compressed style of hammer-struck Russian coins of the period. No border or decorative devices are present; the inscription alone occupies the full surface.
