Peter I's wire kopecks — struck by hammering silver wire between dies rather than milled production — were a technology holdover from medieval Muscovy that Peter himself despised. He was actively dismantling the system by 1702, pushing toward Western-style milled coinage, which makes these late wire issues transitional artifacts of a monetary reform already underway. The Kadashevsky mint in Moscow was among the last facilities still producing them.
Within a few years the wire kopeck was abolished entirely, replaced by round milled copper pieces in 1704.
