| Beschrijving voorzijde | Depiction of a mounted Tsar as horseman, facing right, on a galloping horse, holding a spear or lance directed downward in the traditional St. George manner — a convention representing the sovereign. The date in Church Slavonic Cyrillic numerals appears beneath the horse's hooves in the lower field. The flan is characteristically irregular and lens-shaped, as typical of wire-cut (chekanka) production of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter I's wire money kopecks — struck by twisting silver rod into small blanks and impressing them with hand dies — were an archaic holdover he actively despised. By 1710 he was already mid-campaign to replace them entirely with Western-style milled coinage, a reform he had begun in 1700. These late wire kopecks were struck in diminishing quantities as the new round coinage absorbed demand; production of the type ceased altogether by 1718.
The blanks' irregular shape made consistent die placement nearly impossible, which is why no two examples align identically.
