| Reverse description | Inscription in Cyrillic characters arranged in multiple horizontal lines across the field of this characteristic wire-money flan, reading the titulature of the Tsar in abbreviated form: ЦРЪ / ПЕmРЪ / аЛЕѮҦF / ОИЧЪ, denoting 'Tsar Peter Alexeyevich.' The legends are rendered in the archaic Muscovite script style typical of late 17th- to early 18th-century Russian coinage, with individual letters exhibiting the angular, compressed forms necessitated by the small irregular silver flan produced by the wire-cutting and hammer-striking technique. Punctuation marks in the form of dots or decorative stops appear between lines, consistent with the typographic conventions of this series. |
