| Obverse description | A crowned equestrian figure of the Tsar, depicted as a lance-bearing rider on a galloping horse facing right, rendered in the traditional Russian wire money style with bold, schematic lines. The rider holds a spear pointing downward toward the horse's forelegs, a motif derived from the St. George iconographic tradition. Mintmark letters appear beneath the horse's hooves in the field. The design is typical of late 17th-century Russian chekhi (wire kopecks), struck on an irregular silver planchet cut from wire. |

| Reverse description | Multi-line Cyrillic inscription filling the entire field, characteristic of Russian wire money of the period, containing the full royal titulature of Tsar Peter Alexeyevich. The legend reads ЦАРЬ И ВЕЛИКИЙ КНЯЗЬ ПЕТР АЛЕКСЕЕВИЧ ВСЕЯ РУСИ, meaning 'Tsar and Grand Prince Peter Alexeyevich of all Rus,' compressed and abbreviated across several lines to fit the small irregular flan. The text is arranged in a compact block, with no border or decorative elements, typical of the chekhi denomination. |
