| Reverse description | The denomination МОНЕТА ПОЛТИНА inscribed in two bold lines of Cyrillic lettering occupies the central field, separated from the date 1854 below by a decorative floral ornament. The entire legend is framed by a wreath composed of olive branches to the left and oak branches to the right, tied at the base, with an imperial crown surmounting the composition at the top. The design is enclosed within a toothed border consistent with the Warsaw Mint's milling style of the period. |
