| Obverse description | Central field depicts a mounted horseman — representing the Tsar — astride a galloping horse facing right, holding a spear in the raised right hand in the traditional 'kopeck rider' or 'Yezdets' motif characteristic of early Russian wire money. The figure is rendered in a stylized, flat relief typical of hammered coinage of the period. The mint signature МО/СКВА (Moscow) appears beneath the hooves of the horse, identifying the issuing mint. The design is contained within the irregular, lenticular flan produced by the wire-cutting technique. |
