| Reverse description | The reverse bears a six-line Cyrillic inscription filling the entire field of the irregular planchet, surmounted by a titlo (abbreviation mark) above the opening line. The legend reads the full abbreviated titulature of Tsar Peter Alexeyevich, identifying him as ruler of all Russia. The bold, blocky Cyrillic letterforms are characteristic of early eighteenth-century Russian wire money die engraving, with the text compressed to fit the elongated oval shape of the flan. The hammered technique produces an uneven strike, with some letters more sharply rendered than others depending on the thickness of the planchet at each point. |
