Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription arranged in horizontal rows across the entire field, containing the full titles of Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich in Old Russian. The legend reads ЦАРЬ И ВЕЛИКИЙ КНЯЗЬ АЛЕКСЕЙ МИХАЙЛОВИЧ ВСЕЯ РУСИ, meaning 'Tsar and Grand Prince Alexey Mikhailovich of all Rus.' The lettering is executed in a compressed, archaic Cyrillic style characteristic of mid-17th century Russian hammered coinage, and due to the small flan size, only a portion of the full legend is typically visible on any given specimen. No border or decorative elements frame the inscription.

Aanvullende informatie

Alexey Mikhailovich inherited the throne at sixteen and immediately faced the Solyany Bunt — the Salt Riot of 1648 — a fiscal revolt triggered in part by his government's punishing indirect taxes. The wire-cut kopeck he issued in these years was itself a product of that same strained treasury, struck by hand on irregular silver slugs clipped from imported wire, a technique unchanged since Ivan the Terrible. Each piece is unique in outline, a consequence of the method rather than any mint eccentricity.
