Below the denomination is the name of the monetary unit "КОПѢЕКЪ". Further below is the year of mintage "1860", visually separated from the upper part of the coin by two ornamental lines with five dots between them. Below the year is the abbreviation "С.П.Б." (Saint Petersburg Mint). Along the edge on the left is a laurel branch, and on the right an oak branch. The branches are intertwined at the bottom by a ribbon forming a bow. The rim of the coin is decorated with raised denticles.

The center of the obverse is occupied by the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire — a double-headed eagle. Both eagle heads bear crowns, and a third larger crown is above and between the heads. All are connected by the ribbon of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle. On the eagle's breast is the Moscow coat of arms, within the shield St. George the Victorious spearing a dragon. Surrounding the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the Apostle. The coats of arms on the wings (four on each wing): Kazan, Polish, Taurida, Astrakhan, Siberian, Georgian, Kiev and Novgorod, Vladimir. In the eagle's right talon is a scepter, and in the left an orb. Below the right talon is the letter "Ф", below the left — "Б". The initials of mintmaster Fedor Blum. The rim is decorated with denticles.
