Several variants of ПЕЧАТЬ. Some mirrored.
Considered newer than 5 Deniers variant due to reduction of precious metal to match later groats and lower quality. Diameter between 12 and 14. Weight between 0.59 and 0.81. Fine metal mass is close to 1/5 of contemporary Bohemian groat.
Manufactured by punching out coins from metal strips and then stamping them.
