| Beschrijving keerzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vasily Shuisky's reign was among the most chaotic in Russian history — he seized the throne in 1606 following the murder of the First False Dmitry, only to spend nearly his entire rule battling the Second False Dmitry, peasant uprisings under Ivan Bolotnikov, and Polish-Lithuanian intervention. Wire money of this period was minted under extreme fiscal and political pressure, with Novgorod operating as a semi-independent production center. Shuisky was eventually deposed in 1610, tonsured as a monk by force, and handed to the Poles.
