Reverse description The reverse displays a rampant lion facing left within an inner beaded border, representing the heraldic emblem of the Rus' (Ruthenia) region, specifically associated with the principality of Galicia-Volhynia and the Lwów mint. The lion is depicted in a vigorous, stylised Gothic manner with pronounced claws and a curling tail. A peripheral Latin legend encircles the device along the outer rim of the flan, partially legible due to the irregular strike typical of hammered medieval coinage. The beaded border frames the central device and separates it from the surrounding inscription.
