| Obverse description | Crowned and robed equestrian figure of the Tsar, facing right, brandishing a spear or lance in his raised right hand while mounted on a galloping horse. The rider wears a crown and flowing robes, rendered in the schematic, low-relief style characteristic of Russian wire money. A partial Cyrillic date inscription appears in the lower field of this irregularly shaped, planchet-cut flan. |

| Reverse description | Cyrillic legend distributed across the field in multiple lines, reading the full titulature of the sovereign: «ЦРЬ И ВЕЛИКIИ КНЯЗЬ ПЕТРЪ ЛЕКСIЕВИЧЬ ВСЕЯ РОССIИ» (Tsar and Grand Prince Pyotr Alexeyevich of all Rus). The inscription is struck in the characteristic compressed, abbreviated style of Russian wire kopecks, with letters crowded onto the small irregular flan and partial text visible depending on planchet size and die placement. |
