| Obverse description | Cyrillic legend filling the field across multiple lines, denoting the denomination and place of issue. The inscription is struck on an irregularly shaped flan typical of wire-money production, with characters rendered in the archaic Cyrillic script characteristic of early sixteenth-century Muscovite coinage. The lettering is arranged in three registers across the flat field, with no border or decorative elements. The flan shows the characteristic uneven edges and variable thickness of hand-cut wire planchets. |
