Obverse description Central field depicts an equestrian figure of the Tsar in the guise of St. George, riding a galloping horse to the right while wielding a downward-pointing spear. The design is rendered in the archaic wire-money (chешуйка) tradition, with the image struck on a small, irregularly shaped silver flan. Cyrillic characters appear beneath the horse's hooves, forming part of the date inscription. The composition follows the centuries-old Russian wire kopeck convention, with bold but schematic relief typical of the late wire-money series.
