| Obverse description | A mounted equestrian figure representing the Tsar, depicted in right-facing profile astride a galloping horse, holding a spear or lance. The design follows the traditional wire money (чешуйки) style, with the image struck on a small, irregular planchet cut from a silver wire rod. The letters СЕ appear beneath the horse's hooves, serving as a mint or die identifier. The rendering is characteristic of the crude but iconographically consistent hammered coinage of late 17th-century Muscovy. |
