| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the Russian countermark applied in 1655 under Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich, consisting of a small oval punchmark struck into the field of the host coin. The countermark depicts a mounted horseman (the traditional Russian rider motif), applied over the existing design of the Mansfeld-Friedeburg Taler. The date 1655, the year of the Russian countermarking, appears prominently in the field. The surrounding area retains the original taler design featuring a standing armoured figure of the Mansfeld count amid elaborate decorative elements, with the partial Latin circular legend reading COMI·E·DOMI·N·MANSEE·NOB·DO·I·H. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The jefimok program of 1655 was a fiscal emergency measure. Russia lacked the silver stocks and technical capacity to strike full-weight roubles domestically, so Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich's government bought up foreign thalers in bulk and applied two counterstamps — a horseman punch and a date punch reading 1655 — to monetize them at 64 kopecks each. The Mansfeld-Friedeburg taler of 1603, struck over half a century before its Russian conversion, had by then traveled far enough through European trade networks to end up in Muscovite hands.
The program was abandoned the same year it launched, making the entire jefimok issue a single-year experiment.
