Reverse description The reverse displays a multi-line Cyrillic inscription filling the entire irregular flan, arranged in three horizontal lines of text across the field, a format standard for Russian wire kopecks of this period. The legend reads the royal titulature identifying the issuing sovereign, rendered in the archaic Church Slavonic script characteristic of Muscovite coinage. The lettering is bold and slightly compressed to fit the narrow oval planchet, with individual characters showing the vigorous, somewhat angular style of late 17th-century Russian die engraving. No border or decorative elements are present, the inscription occupying the full available surface. The text proclaims the title 'Tsar and Grand Prince Peter Alekseyevich of All Russia,' reflecting the sole attribution to Peter despite the joint reign with Ivan V.
