| Beschrijving keerzijde | Compressed Cyrillic text legend filling the entire irregular flan, conveying the full titulature of Tsar Peter I. The inscription is arranged in multiple abbreviated lines across the field, reading «ЦРЬ И ВЕЛИКIИ КНЯЗЬ ПЕТРЪ АЛЕКСЕЕВИЧЬ ВСЕЯ РОССIИ» (Tsar and Grand Prince Pyotr Alexeyevich of all Rus). The lettering is characteristic of the late wire money series, with individual characters struck in raised relief on the flattened silver wire planchet. No border or decorative elements are present, as is typical of this hammered issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter I's wire kopecks — struck by the ancient "chekanka" hammered method, where silver wire was cut into small slugs and struck between dies — were already anachronistic by 1715. Peter had been pushing Western-style milled coinage since 1700, and these tiny wire pieces were officially abolished in 1718, making the 1715 issues among the last produced. They circulated alongside the new round kopecks in a brief, chaotic overlap that the treasury actively discouraged.
