| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a multi-line Cyrillic inscription across the field, arranged in horizontal lines, reading the denomination and date. The legend identifies the coin as a Polushka, the smallest copper denomination in the Petrine monetary system equal to one-quarter of a kopek. The date appears in either Cyrillic numerals, Arabic numerals, or a mixed format depending on the variety. The lettering is somewhat irregular and bold, consistent with the hand-punched die work typical of early eighteenth-century Russian copper coinage. |

Peter I's copper coinage reform of the early 18th century was driven less by numismatic ambition than by a chronic shortage of small change strangling retail commerce. The polushka — worth a quarter kopek — was the smallest denomination in the reformed system, and the Moscow and Kadashevsky mints struggled to maintain consistent output given frequent retooling between the two facilities, which accounts for the die variety split reflected in KM#152.1 and 152.3.
Copper supplies were partly sourced from confiscated church bells, a famously contentious policy Peter pushed through over significant ecclesiastical resistance beginning in 1701.
