| Reverse description | Central device features the Imperial Russian double-headed eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head crowned and the central shield surmounted by a larger imperial crown. The eagle holds a sceptre in its right talon and an orb in its left. The mint mark СПБ (St. Petersburg) appears in the lower field beneath the eagle, flanked by the two heads. The circular Cyrillic legend around the periphery reads МОНЕТА ∙ НОВАЯ ∙ ЦЕНА ∙ ПОЛТIНА, with the date 1726 appearing on the left side of the coin. The design is executed in the bold relief typical of early Petrine-era Imperial coinage. |
