| Obverse description | A stylized beast depicted in profile within a beaded or rope-bordered circular frame, rendered in the crude but vigorous hammered style characteristic of early Moscow coinage. The creature occupies the central field of the irregularly shaped flan. The overall composition reflects the eclectic Mongol-influenced artistic tradition prevalent in Muscovite numismatic production of the late 14th and early 15th centuries. |

| Reverse description | A profile head, likely that of a human figure, rendered in a simplified and stylized manner typical of early Muscovite hammered silver coinage.

The design occupies the irregular flan characteristic of wire-money production techniques of the era. |
