| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing armored bust of Emperor Peter III (Pyotr III) occupying the central field, depicted in military dress with epaulettes and decorative gorget, his hair dressed in the contemporary court fashion. A circular Cyrillic legend runs along the upper periphery reading ПЕТРЪ∙III∙Б∙М∙IМП∙IСАМОДЕРЖ∙ВСЕРОС, identifying the emperor as Tsar by God's Grace, Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia. The mint mark СПБ (Saint Petersburg) appears at the base of the bust below the truncation. The portrait is rendered in a bold, high-relief style characteristic of mid-18th century Russian imperial coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter III reigned for just 186 days before being deposed in a coup engineered by his wife, who then ruled as Catherine II for the next three decades. His coinage output was correspondingly thin, and the St. Petersburg ruble was struck across only a narrow window in 1762 before the dies were pulled.
KM#47.2 distinguishes the SPB (St. Petersburg) mint issue from the Moscow striking. The deposed tsar's coins were not systematically recalled, but survival rates remain low — politically inconvenient coinage rarely received careful preservation.
