| Obverse description | A mounted warrior (kopeinik) depicted in right profile, riding a galloping horse and brandishing a lance downward in the characteristic manner of Russian wire kopecks. The mintmark letters ПС (denoting the Pskov mint) appear beneath the horse's hooves in the lower field. The design is rendered in the bold, compact style typical of early 17th-century Russian hammered coinage, with the flan shaped from a flattened silver wire blank, resulting in an irregular oval form. |
