Coins-Tsarist Coins

Reverse
The central part features an inscription—the word "КОПЕЙКИ" (KOPEEKS). Above the inscription is the numeral "2.". Below the inscription is a decorative line, under which is the mint year "1802.". To the left and right of the monetary unit are two embossed dots (indicating the coin's denomination), each encircled by two rings. The dots are placed on a rim of five lines running along the edge.
Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle with wings spread. The eagle's heads bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is above and between them. On the eagle's breast 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). Surrounding the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle the First-Called. To the left and right of the heraldic eagle are the counting marks for two kopecks—two bordered dots, placed on a rim of five lines running along the edge. In the right talon is a scepter, and below it the letter "E". In the left talon is an orb, and below it the letter "M". Together the letters indicate the Yekaterinburg Mint.
