Obverse description Cyrillic legend arranged in multiple lines across the coin field, reading the title and name of Grand Prince Vasily. The inscription is set within a plain field on this crudely struck hammered silver piece, with text varieties known across the issue. The lettering is bold and irregular in execution, consistent with hand-engraved dies of the Moscow principality workshop.
