| Obverse description | Depicted in the field is a mounted horseman in profile, brandishing a raised sword, seated upon a prancing horse rendered in a flat, archaic style characteristic of early Muscovite wire money. The Cyrillic letter Д appears below the horse in the lower field, serving as a mint or denomination indicator. A partial circular Cyrillic legend surrounds the central device along the periphery of the irregular flan, reading as the titulature of Grand Duke Vasiliy Ivanovich. The die engraving is bold but somewhat crude, consistent with the hand-cut dies typical of late medieval Russian hammered coinage. |
