| Obverse description | Equestrian figure of the Tsar depicted as a mounted warrior, galloping to the right, wielding a spear in the raised right hand in the traditional 'kopye' (spear-bearer) motif characteristic of Russian wire money. The rider is shown in profile on a prancing horse with visible saddle detail. Mint letters 'o M' appear beneath the horse's hooves in Cyrillic characters, identifying the Moscow Mint. The design is struck on an irregularly shaped flan typical of wire coinage (chekha), resulting in a partially rendered field around the central devices. |
