| Obverse description | A seated figure, likely a prince or ruler, is depicted in full frontal or three-quarter view upon a throne or chair, rendered in the crude but characteristic style of medieval Novgorodian hammered coinage. The figure's outline is bold and schematic, typical of the die-cutting conventions of the Novgorod Republic. The field is flat and unadorned, with no exergue or border ornament. The overall engraving reflects the archaic artistic tradition of 15th-century Russian principality coinage. |
