Obverse description Crowned double-headed Imperial eagle displayed within a beaded inner circle, the two heads surmounted by a single crown. The eagle's wings are spread and detailed with individual feathers, with a shield on its breast. Surrounding the beaded circle, a Cyrillic legend reading the abbreviated titles of Tsar Peter Alexeyevich is arranged in separated letter groups, punctuated by raised dots. The overall composition reflects the early Petrine reform coinage style, transitioning from medieval Russian to Western European numismatic conventions.
