| Reverse description | Four lines of Cyrillic inscription in bold, archaic Muscovite lettering filling the entire field of the irregular flan, reading ВЄЛИ / КАГОН / ОВАГР / АДА, an abbreviated form of 'Veliky Novgorod' (Великий Новгород), denoting the Novgorod mint authority. The letters are deeply struck and characteristic of the wire-money hammered technique, with slight doubling and irregular spacing consistent with hand-struck production. No border or additional decorative elements are present. |
