| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription filling the entire field of the irregular oval flan, arranged in horizontal lines across the coin's surface in the standard format of early Romanov wire kopecks. The legend reads the full royal titulature of Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich, identifying him as Tsar and Grand Prince of All Rus. The letters are boldly struck in the archaic Church Slavonic script style typical of Moscow Mint production of this period, with characteristic ligatures and abbreviated forms. The mint mark 'о М' (Old Mint, Moscow) appears as part of the inscription field. The flan edges are irregular and show the characteristic fish-scale outline of wire money flans. |
