| Obverse description | Cyrillic inscription filling the entire field in multiple horizontal lines, reading the title and name of Grand Prince Vasily. The lettering is boldly struck in relief against a plain field, characteristic of early Moscow hammered coinage. The legend is partially legible due to the irregular flan and variable strike quality typical of the period. |

| Reverse description | A warrior figure depicted in left profile, brandishing a sword and bearing an axe, rendered in a crude but vigorous style characteristic of early 15th-century Moscow die-cutting. A curved decorative element appears behind the figure. A partial Cyrillic circular legend surrounds the central design, reading as the princely seal inscription. The overall composition is typical of the wire-money tradition of medieval Russian denga coinage. |
