| Obverse description | A stylized bird depicted in flight, struck on an irregular flan typical of hammered medieval Russian wire-money technique. The design is rendered in low relief with crude but characteristic workmanship of the Nizhny Novgorod-Suzdal principality. The bird motif occupies the majority of the field, with the flan edges showing irregular clipping consistent with the period. |
