| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Cyrillic legend reading the title and name of Grand Prince Vasily, arranged in three or four horizontal lines across the flan. The inscription is rendered in the early medieval Cyrillic script characteristic of Muscovite wire money of the early fifteenth century. The irregular, slightly convex flan shows the typical characteristics of hammered coinage of this period, with the legend filling the available field. A dotted border frames the design. |
