| Obverse description | Obverse bears the traditional Russian wire money depiction of an armored equestrian figure — the Tsar or St. George — shown in profile facing right, mounted on horseback and wielding a spear or lance directed downward toward a fallen serpent or enemy beneath the horse's hooves. The design is rendered in the characteristic schematic, high-relief style of hammered wire coinage, with the flan exhibiting an irregular, elongated oval shape typical of the period. The flan surface is uneven and the design is partially flat-struck in places due to the nature of the wire-cutting and hammering technique. No legend appears on this face; the imagery occupies the full available field. |
