| Obverse description | A mounted horseman, representing the Tsar, depicted in profile to the right astride a galloping horse, bearing a raised spear in the manner of St. George. The date in Church Slavonic Cyrillic numerals (҂АѰВ, corresponding to 1702) appears in the field beneath the horse's hooves. The design is characteristic of the traditional Russian wire money (cheshуika) coinage, with the image struck on an irregularly shaped flan cut from a silver wire rod. |
