| Reverse description | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription occupying the full field of the irregularly shaped flan, reading the royal titulature of the issuing sovereign in abbreviated form. The bold, raised lettering is characteristic of the wire money hammering technique, with individual letters displaying the archaic forms typical of early 18th-century Russian script. The legend is distributed across two or three lines within the confined oval field, with no border or decorative elements framing the text. The irregular flan edges intrude upon the outermost letters, a common feature of chekhi coinage. The inscription identifies the coin as issued under Tsar Pyotr Alexeyevich. |
