| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription filling the field of the small, irregular silver flan, reading the regnal title of the issuing sovereign. The bold, angular letterforms are characteristic of the early 18th-century Russian hammered wire kopeck tradition, struck with a hand-cut die. The legend is distributed across three lines and is partially truncated at the coin's irregular edges, a typical feature of this denomination. The overall relief is sharp at the center but fades toward the periphery due to the limitations of the hammering technique. |
