| Reverse description | The reverse displays a multi-line Cyrillic legend spread across the entire field of the irregular silver flan, struck in bold relief typical of late wire-money (chekha) coinage. The inscription, in Old Church Slavonic, records the full titular style of Tsar Peter Alexeyevich, reading 'Tsar and Grand Prince Pyotr Alexeyevich of all Rus.' The lettering is arranged in compressed horizontal lines filling the available planchet surface, with characters exhibiting the angular, archaic forms characteristic of late 17th- to early 18th-century Muscovite epigraphy. The legend is partially truncated at the flan edges owing to the small, elongated shape of the hammered blank. |
