Reverse
The center of the reverse is occupied by the coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle, both heads of which bear crowns. A third, larger crown is positioned 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). The shield is encircled by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle the First-Called. In the eagle's right talon is a scepter, in the left—an orb. Under the right talon is the letter 'E', under the left—the letter 'I'. These are the initials of mintmaster Egor (Georg) Ivanov. Above the eagle is the year of mintage—'1758'. Around the eagle, facing inward, is the inscription: МОНЕТА•РУБЛЬ• (COIN•RUBLE•).
Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the right-facing profile of Empress Elizabeth I (Petrovna). Around the portrait is the inscription: Б•М•ЕЛИСАВЕТЪ•I•IМП: IСАМОД: ВСЕРОС• (B•M•ELISAVET•I•IMP: ISAMOD: VSEROS•). In the lower part, beneath the portrait, is the abbreviation 'М М Д' (Moscow Mint).
