Obverse description Draped bust of Emperor Alexander I facing right, depicted with curled hair and wearing a high military collar adorned with laurel embroidery, rendered in the neoclassical medallic style characteristic of Carl Leberecht's work. The portrait is set within a wide, flat field with an inner beaded border. The Cyrillic legend reads Б.М. АЛЕКСАНДРЪ I. ИМПЕРАТОРЪ ИСАМОДЕР. ВСЕРОСС. around the periphery, abbreviated from the full imperial title 'By the Grace of God, Alexander I, Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia.' The engraver's signature LEBERECHT F. appears in the lower exergue beneath the bust. The overall execution reflects the refined medallic artistry of the Saint Petersburg Mint in the early 19th century.
