| Obverse description | A mounted horseman depicted as the Tsar, galloping to the right while brandishing a spear, rendered in the characteristic flat relief of early Russian hammered coinage. The figure is shown in profile on a striding horse, with the spear held aloft in the right hand. Below the horse's hooves, the mint signature letters МОС / КВА (Moscow) appear in Cyrillic characters, identifying the issuing mint. The design occupies an irregularly shaped flan typical of wire-money (cheshuykas) of the period. The overall style reflects the medieval Russian artistic tradition of depicting the sovereign as a warrior prince. |
