The central part depicts the State Emblem of the Russian Empire – a double-headed eagle with wings spread and lowered. 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 heraldic shield, above the eagle's heads, is crowned by the Imperial crown. The eagle holds thunderbolts and a torch in its right talon and a laurel wreath in its left, both entwined with the ribbon of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. Below the ribbon are the letters: 'Н' on the left and 'Г' on the right. These are the initials of mintmaster Nikolai Grachev. Below the initials is the year of mintage '1826 ГОДА.' (YEAR). The rim is decorated with short denticles.
