正面铭文	҂АΨSI (Translation: 1716)
背面描述	The reverse bears a six-line Cyrillic inscription in Church Slavonic characters occupying the entire field, a format typical of Russian wire kopecks of the period. The legend reads ЦАРЬ ПЕТР АЛЕКСЕЕВИЧЬ ВСЕЯ РОССIИ САМОДЕРЖЕЦ, identifying the issuing sovereign as Tsar Peter Alexeyevich, Autocrat of All Russia. The lettering is compact and slightly irregular due to the hand-struck wire money (чешуйка) technique, with individual letter forms consistent with early 18th-century Russian epigraphy. No border or decorative elements frame the inscription.

附加信息	Peter I's wire kopecks — the chekanka variety struck by the old hammered method — were a deliberate anachronism by 1716, already being phased out in favor of milled coinage as part of Peter's sweeping monetary reforms begun in 1698. These tiny slivers of silver, shaped on drawn wire rather than cut planchets, had been the backbone of Russian small change for two centuries. The mint continued striking them through 1718 primarily to ease rural acceptance of the new system, not because there was enthusiasm for the old technology.
