Obverse description	Crude hammered copper field bearing a roughly executed device, likely depicting a stylized animal or quadruped figure facing to the right, rendered in low relief typical of small medieval Russian principality coinage. The design is heavily worn and exhibits characteristic surface corrosion and patination consistent with burial or extended circulation. The imagery is characteristic of the primitive die-cutting style employed by minor Rus appanage mints of the late 14th and early 15th centuries. The flan is irregularly shaped with uneven edges, as expected for hand-struck pulo denominations of this period.

Reverse description	Irregular hammered copper flan displaying a heavily corroded and worn field with traces of a design element, possibly a tamga or geometric motif, in low relief at center. The surface is obscured by extensive green patination and encrustation typical of long-buried medieval Russian copper coinage. The reverse is characteristic of appanage-period pulo issues, where legends and devices were often crudely incised and are now largely illegible on surviving specimens. The overall style reflects the modest die-engraving resources available to the minor Principality of Mikulin in the early 15th century.
