| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription filling the entire flan, reading the full titulature of the sovereign. The legend, typical of wire kopecks of Peter I, identifies the issuer as Tsar and Grand Prince Pyotr Alexeyevich of all Russia. The text is distributed across the irregular oblong surface in compressed abbreviated form, characteristic of hammered wire coinage of the Moscow Mint in this period. The lettering is struck in relief against an uneven field, reflecting the nature of the cheshuykas production method. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter I's silver kopeck of 1701 belongs to a transitional moment in Russian monetary history — these wire-money "scales" coins (cheshuitsy) were already obsolete by intent, as Peter had begun planning a fully reformed decimal coinage. The tiny flan was hand-struck using medieval techniques his own treasury was actively working to abolish. Full production of the new milled coinage would not be established until 1704, leaving these archaic pieces to circulate alongside the first modern Russian coins for a brief and peculiar overlap.
