| Reverse description | The reverse of this wire money kopeck presents three lines of bold Cyrillic lettering occupying the full field of the irregularly shaped flan. The inscription reads 'ЦРЬ ПЕТРЪ АЛЕѮѢЕ ВИЧЪ', identifying the issuer as Tsar Pyotr Alexeyevich (Peter I). The characters are rendered in the archaic Muscovite Cyrillic style typical of late 17th and early 18th-century Russian wire coinage, with thick, slightly uneven strokes resulting from the hand-struck hammering process. No border or decorative device frames the legend. The text is distributed across the flan in a manner consistent with the die design rather than the planchet shape, causing partial legend loss at the edges on some strikes. |
