Obverse description Draped and armored bust of Emperor Peter III facing right, wearing a cravat and military cuirass with decorative detailing. The effigy is rendered in high relief with naturalistic portraiture typical of mid-18th century Russian coinage. A Cyrillic legend curves along the upper periphery, with the mint mark СПБ (St. Petersburg) positioned at the bottom of the field beneath the bust. The overall design reflects the brief but distinctive coinage style of Peter III's reign in 1762.
