Reverse In the central part, there is an inscription—the word 'POLUSHKA'. Above the inscription—the numeral '1.'. Below the inscription—a decorative line, and under it—the mintage year '1804.'. A double linear rim runs along the edge of the coin.
Obverse The center of the obverse features a double-headed eagle—the coat of arms of the Russian Empire. Both heads of the eagle bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is placed between them. On the eagle's chest is the coat of arms of Moscow—a shield depicting St. George the Victorious on horseback, slaying a serpent with a long spear (the serpent's head is to the right). Around the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle. In its right talon is a scepter, and below it the letter 'K'. In its left talon is an orb, and below it the letter 'M'. Together, the letters indicate the Suzun Mint. A double linear rim runs along the edge.
