Beschrijving voorzijde Frontal effigy of Prince Vladimir I the Great seated on a throne, rendered in a stylized Byzantine manner, holding a long cross-tipped scepter in his right hand and an orb in his left. The figure is flanked by decorative architectural or pillar elements suggesting a throne backrest, with dotted border ornamentation visible at the lower register. A Cyrillic legend, partially legible due to the irregular flan, surrounds the central design within a beaded border. The engraving style is archaic and heavily influenced by Byzantine iconographic conventions adapted to local Rus coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The srebrennik was minted under Vladimir Sviatoslavich following his conversion to Byzantine Christianity in 988 — a political alignment that brought not just a new religion but an entirely new visual grammar of rulership, borrowed directly from Byzantine coin types. Vladimir appears to have introduced coinage partly to assert sovereign legitimacy in a form recognizable to neighboring powers, rather than out of any pressing commercial need. Kyivan Rus had functioned on bullion and foreign coin for generations.

Type III is distinguished from earlier srebrennik issues by modifications to the trident tamga, Vladimir's dynastic symbol, which numismatists use as the primary classification criterion across the series.
