| Obverse description | Frontal enthroned effigy of the Grand Prince Sviatopolk Vladimirovich, depicted in Byzantine style, seated facing on a high-backed throne and clad in princely robes with schematic drapery rendered in parallel lines. The right hand grasps a tall processional cross with a pellet-adorned crossbar, while the left hand rests on the knee. A nimbus or circular device appears above the head, and a Cyrillic inscription is partially visible in the left field, identifying the ruler. |

| Reverse description | The dynastic tamgha of the Rurikid house of Sviatopolk, composed of a trident-like symbol with two diverging limbs, the right limb terminating in a cross patée and the base incorporating a triquetra motif. A small pelleted cross is positioned between the limbs within the central field. The design is executed in bold relief against an unadorned field, consistent with the established heraldic vocabulary of early Kyivan Rus coinage. |
