| Beschrijving voorzijde | Obverse of this small hammered wire money (cheshúyka) depicts a mounted equestrian figure of the Tsar in profile facing right, shown on horseback and brandishing a spear or lance in a raised right hand, a design type traditional to Muscovite kopecks since Ivan the Terrible. The relief is low and the flan irregular in outline, as characteristic of wire-drawn silver planchets of the period. The mint mark 'оМ' (denoting the Moscow Mint) appears in the field, partially visible due to the irregular striking. The crude but forceful workmanship is typical of late seventeenth-century Russian hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Feodor III's reign lasted just six years before his death in 1682 at age twenty, and the political chaos that followed — the Streltsy revolt and the brief joint rule of Ivan V and Peter I under the regency of Sophia — disrupted mint operations considerably. These wire-money kopecks, struck by the traditional hammered method unchanged since the sixteenth century, would themselves become casualties of Petrine reform within two decades, when Peter abolished the hand-struck scale-shaped coinage entirely in favor of Western milled techniques.
