| Reverse description | Three lines of Cyrillic inscription filling the field of the irregular flan, reading the full royal titulature of Tsar Vasiliy IV Shuysky. The lettering is executed in the angular, compressed Cyrillic script characteristic of Russian wire kopecks of the Time of Troubles period. The text is arranged horizontally across the flan in three registers, with letters tightly packed to accommodate the full legend within the limited space. The surface shows typical die-strike irregularities and slight flan curvature inherent to the hammered wire-money production technique. |
