| Beschrijving voorzijde | Obverse of this wire money (cheshuyка) depicts a mounted tsar in profile facing right, shown as a horseman wielding a lance or spear, rendered in the traditional schematic style characteristic of Russian wire kopecks of the period. The figure is set within the irregularly shaped, lens-like flan produced by the hammered wire technique, with the design struck from a hand-cut die resulting in partial and uneven impression across the planchet. The deeply relief-struck image retains visible traces of the rider's mount and weapon, consistent with the long-standing iconographic type employed on Muscovite and early Petrine coinage. The flat, unbordered field shows the natural surface texture of the hammered silver strip from which the flan was cut. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter I's wire kopecks — struck by the ancient "fish scale" method of hammering slugs cut from drawn wire — were already anachronistic by 1711, a deliberate holdover Peter tolerated while his monetary reforms were still incomplete. The following year, 1712, production of these archaic pieces effectively ceased as the new round, machine-struck coinage took over. A 1711 wire kopeck is therefore among the last of a coinage tradition stretching back to Ivan the Terrible.
