| Obverse description | A beast depicted in profile facing right, rendered in a stylized medieval manner characteristic of early Muscovite coinage. A scorpion is shown above the beast, and a trefoil ornament appears at the beast's mouth. The Cyrillic inscription runs around or within the field, identifying the issuing prince. The design occupies the entirety of the irregularly shaped flan, typical of hammered wire-cut production. |
