| Obverse description | Mounted equestrian figure of the Tsar depicted as a lancer on a galloping horse facing right, the rider bearing a spear in the raised right hand. The design, rendered in the traditional Russian wire money style, is boldly struck on an irregular flan with characteristic flat, unstandardized planchet edges. Cyrillic date characters appear beneath the hooves of the horse in the lower field. The overall execution reflects the archaic hammered technique inherited from pre-Petrine coinage. |
