| Obverse description | Equestrian figure of the Tsar depicted in profile to the right, mounted on a galloping horse and brandishing a long spear downward in the traditional manner of a warrior-sovereign. The rider is rendered in the archaic wire-money style characteristic of Russian chekanka coinage, with the horse's legs extended in full gallop. The design occupies the left portion of the irregular flan, with the mint mark appearing in the field. The bold but somewhat crude relief is typical of hand-struck wire money (provolochnie dengi) of the period. |
