| Beschrijving voorzijde | Frontal enthroned effigy of Prince Vladimir the Great, seated on a high-backed throne, depicted in the Byzantine hieratic tradition with stylized robes and regalia. The prince holds a cross-tipped scepter in his right hand, while his left rests on his knee; a large crown or diadem with pendant lappets surmounts the head. A dotted inner border frames the central device, and the Cyrillic legend ВЛАДИМИРЪ НА СТОЛѢ (Vladimir on the throne) runs around the periphery, partially visible through wear. The design reflects strong Byzantine iconographic influence adapted to Rus coinage conventions. |

The srebrennik — literally "silver coin" — was among the first native coinage struck in the lands of the Rus, produced under Vladimir Sviatoslavich following his adoption of Christianity in 988 and the subsequent push to project sovereign authority through objects of exchange. Type III is distinguished from earlier types primarily by die evolution, and the series as a whole was minted in quantities too small to function as genuine commercial currency; scholars broadly agree these were prestige objects, gifts of rank, or political tokens rather than everyday transactional money.
Fewer than 340 srebreniki of all types are known to survive across all collections worldwide.
