| Obverse description | Crude hammered design depicting a stylized figure or animal motif in the field, rendered in the characteristic wire-money technique of late 14th to early 15th century Muscovite coinage. The design is executed in low relief on an irregular flan, with details difficult to distinguish due to the primitive striking method and the coin's worn condition. The overall composition reflects the artistic conventions of early Russian medieval numismatics, with bold but roughly defined imagery occupying the central field. |

| Reverse description | Irregular hammered flan displaying a Cyrillic legend arranged around the central field, consistent with the titulature inscriptions found on Muscovite denga coinage of Vasily I. The lettering, though partially legible due to weak striking and wear, runs along the periphery of the coin in the manner typical of early Russian wire money. The field shows characteristic surface granularity and flow lines from the hammering process, with no additional device or decorative border discernible. |
