Reverse description Central field displays the royal monogram of Queen Tamar rendered in Mkhedruli script, arranged within a decorative composition of six rosettes mirroring the obverse design. A surrounding Asomtavruli legend occupies the outer border, reading in translation: 'In the name of God, this coin was struck in the year 407 of the Qoronikon.' The presence of Tamar's monogram on the reverse, combined with the George IV obverse legend, establishes this piece as a mule combining dies from two distinct reigns.
Reverse script Georgian (Asomtavruli), Georgian (Mkhedruli)
