| Obverse description | A mounted warrior (kopye rider) depicted in right profile, galloping on horseback and brandishing a long spear; the design is characteristic of the wire kopeck type introduced under Ivan IV and continued through subsequent Muscovite reigns. The mintmaster's initials С М (Cyrillic, denoting the Moscow mint) appear beneath the horse's hooves in the lower field. The design is executed in the fluid, elongated style typical of hammered wire money of the period, with the irregular planchet shape conforming to the nature of the wire-cut flan. |
