| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a bold, centrally placed denomination inscription in three lines reading '1 / КОПѢЙКА / СЕРЕБРОМЪ' (1 Kopeck in silver), separated from the date '1840.' below by a short decorative rule with a central pellet. The mint mark 'С.П.Б.' (Saint Petersburg) appears in small characters at the base of the field. Two small floral ornaments flank the numeral '1' at the top of the legend. The design is framed by the same continuous beaded border as the obverse, maintaining a uniform aesthetic throughout the pattern piece. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "serebrom" (silver) kopeck denomination was introduced as part of Finance Minister Yegor Kankrin's sweeping monetary reform of 1839–1843, which abolished the discredited assignat ruble and pegged Russian currency to silver. This pattern precedes the circulating issue by a year, struck at St. Petersburg while the reform legislation was still being finalized. Kankrin's system — the first coherent metallic standard Russia had maintained in decades — held until the Crimean War forced suspension of silver convertibility in 1854.
