I think it is straightforward.

When you say "Old Russian" do you mean "Old Church Slavonic"?

Glagolitic scripts have some commonalities with Cyrillic scripts, but they are not identical. There are also some unique characters, and they also take some of their shapes from Greek. For example, for the letter "f" they use Greek phi.

I don't know the correct terms for the different eras for Russian script (every century or so, languages evolve and they give them different names, like modern German and Middle High German), but I am referring to the Cyrillic scripts, not the Glagolitic scripts. I don't think I've seen that character in any Glagolitic texts but I have seen it in Cyrillic texts written in whatever they call the medieval version of the Russian language.

If you are looking for the VMS rare character, it's easier to find in Coptic scripts.
