| Reverse description | A mounted Cossack warrior is depicted in profile riding to the right, holding an upright lance. The figure captures the dynamic energy of a cavalry charge, rendered with fine engraved detail typical of early nineteenth-century token manufacture. A two-line legend appears above and below the central equestrian motif identifying the piece as a penny token. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |
